How crazy is crazy? (Cleaning air vents)

[Infinitiguy19]

I have cleaned all the air vents in my car beside the defroster, passenger side face vent and foot vents. I did this over the past year when I had my interior apart (I forgot what it felt like to have a complete interior!)

Well... if you have to ask

I'm probably not the right person to ask though. I actually took apart a lot of the substructure under the dash on my old truck and painted it because it had a light layer of rust. I cleaned out the air ducts and vents while it was apart too... the former driver was a heavy smoker, and after all of my cleaning the smell was completely gone.

or a magazine !!! If the vents were that filthy, just imagine how dirty filthy the evaporator core is, as 100% of that air and dirt had to make it through the evaporator.......time to get a can or two of foaming evaporator cleaner and go to town, results will be cleaner smelling air, stronger airflow, and colder air from AC by removing the built up layer of dirt from cooling coils which acts as an insulator,preventing air from being cooled efficiently when passing over the coils. A once yearly job for me,including foaming the condenser and radiator too.

If your air vents are that clean the engine bay better be brighter than the sun....
