Default AC problems?? Help plzzzz

AC blows cool****. Not cold, cool enough to for the windows to not have to be down on the interstate going 55+
Just drive around down and its hot.
Put freon in several times. Checked the pressure in the lower something (forgot what it's called)
Any ideas??
Thanks in advance

If you're adding refrigerant yourself, take it to a professional. The amount of refrigerant needed is measured by weight, not pressure. They will pull it all out, weigh it, and add if needed. They will also add the correct amount and type of oil for the compressor to function properly.
Too much refrigerant will cause the a/c to blow warm or hot. It needs room inside the system to expand and contract.
So, first step is to take it somewhere to have the system evacuated and filled before the compressor fails.
