Default Refrigerant for 96 Integra

Last week, I purchased a 96 Integra Special pushing room temp air with the compressor engaged The guy at a franchised parts place sold me 20 oz can of r134 I injected it in a the car and had a half of day with a cooled car Since then, the room temp air is constant, with or without the compressor engaged. Local repair shop say I had the wrong product a the system cannot have mixed coolant Any suggested remedy? How can I check for leak location? If leak is stopped or not found, can I put more refrigerant in to fix the too hott to trott car?

Most of the time those box store kids don't know wtf they're doing. UV dye leak test. Unless you're super hvac savvy, it's best/easiest to have a reputable independent shop find the leak and fix it for you.
