    the outside of the coils? A mild acid work well on copper, just be sure to rinse well. Some acid based cleaners come with a neutralizer packet to use after the acid wash.

    Thanks HR. I just used simple green. Turned out it was a single row of coil. Just sprayed it on and hosed it off. CO down to 26 when done.
