1) R12 and R134a sepcifc Nylog? 2) Compressor oil upgrade for R12?

Hi everybody.
Now it is my turn to change the evaporator of my 1992 300TE.
Recent success posted here has encouraged to do the job myself (thank you!).
I have all the parts ready but have just reallized that on my Nylog bottle it writes "HFC compatible". However, my system contains R12. I have learned from ackits.com that there is a R12-specific Nylog version as well.
My question: Does this difference matter? Do I need to re-order a R12-specific Nylog?
Second question: Is mineral compressor oil stil the way to go with R12 or is there some synthetic upgrade that can be recommended?
Please feel welcome to add your experience and advice.
Thanks, Bruno
