Application in Cold Winter Months?

Newbie here - Just picked up the new car yesterday - and a question from the great white north...
Are there any restrictions on application of any products in colder climates? Especially the paint guard plus and interior guard plus (on leather) products? For example - its 5 degrees celsius (about 41 degrees fahrenheit) today - and its only going to get colder from here...

Re: Application in Cold Winter Months?


If a product freezes when you put it on, it's too cold

Re: Application in Cold Winter Months?

I tested it down to the mid-40's (fahrenheit). Below this temperature, it takes an excessive amount of time to dry.

Re: Application in Cold Winter Months?

I have one suggestion. Many petrol stations has multiple wasrooms for cars where you can be for couple of hrs if you like and was your car. But however in many of those showrooms its steamy so i dont know how it would dry when the humidity is high either, maybe DavidB could answer that?

Another option, if you have some nice friends that got garrage, you could ask them if you could borrow it over night?
