Get a set of gauges on it. We need to know low and high side pressures to better pinpoint what the problem is. You can get a cheap set of gauges for under $30-$50 at most AC supply shops. They are a very worthwhile investment, because AC systems are quite simple once you know how to connect a set of gauges and read what they're telling you.
Just using the off-the-shelf cans with a cheap low-side gauge won't provide enough information. If it's blowing air but not getting cold, there's a problem within the system itself - a refrigerant leak, a clogged orifice or bad TXV, or possibly a failing/failed compressor.
