Fred,
Corrosive cleaners make them shiney but eat up the coils over time. Avoid highly acidic or akalyne cleaners and your coils will last longer. Use self rinsing coil cleaners, they are easier on the coils in the long run. You want a high foaming DETERGENT, not a cleaner that foams because it attacks the metal. Stretch |

I've had good results with either four x, or alki foam.
