I cannot remember the trade name but you can get evaporator cleaner at 
Lowe's or HD. We found it near the air-conditioner section at Lowe's Spray 
it on and it boils out the dirt. Condensation flushes it down the drain. No 
fuss, no muss.

But first, vacuum out as much as you can with a soft bristle vac brush. 
Straighten the fins with a small screwdriver.
