Nice going. It may work for a while, even a year or two. But when the rest of the evaperator corrodes, you will be in for a small surprise: The leakstop turns into cement when it comes into contact with air. Be prepared to flush out the compressor/condenser/piping if you don't have to replace everything.

Ask at your local AC shop if you don't believe me. Lets hope you have AC for a long time :)
