djc,
I guess I should have narrowed glycol statement, to the fact since the kegerator sits in a extreme warm environment that might be the only option. Forward sealing faucets have so much exposed surface of beer, no matter how good an air cooling system is, it would be hard to keep that much beer from getting warm in such an environment.
Most 525 owners keep their units in a controlled environment (bars, restaurants or air conditioned homes), few keep them in in environments of fairly high temperature like garages.
I don't think velocity of air flow would make any difference, cold is cold, it looks to be keeping shank at 48 degrees (on outside), but the tip near lever must be much warmer and causing the problem, if the ambient of garage is 85+, I don't think even a glycol system would help.
