Small what???
If the missing word is leak, no I have not.
If it's "dent", or "damage", yes I have.

I have never used this product, but it's advertised to seal small pinhole leaks.
May be worth a try...good luck!

Here is what I was told: The system leak sealer stuff will gum up A/C system evacuation tools. Many A/C shops will not work on your system after you've used the "stop leak" type products. If you don't tell them and they mess up their machine, they will also charge you for cleaning that.
Best solution would be to use the dye specifically made for this purpose and locate and fix the leak appropriately.
If the information I got was bad, well, there you go. But it's something I would check into before using that type of product.
