Ummmm...... how cold is it where you are??
Spraying it will not get all the dirt off.
You`d be safe if you wash it well at the carwash with a mitt and not just spray it down.

Quick question, related to this topic. Does the cold affect the `adhesion` of sealants/waxes? I`ve been waiting an extra hour or so for hazing to occur with 845-- is more time required?
Thanks!

Yes, I`ve had wax not cure properly at 40dF. Try and get a portable heater for your garage.

A little, it may take a little longer to cure.

In the winter I normally take my car to a local touchless wash and then use a QD in my garage when I get home. The only thing I noticed is that in the cold weather it takes more wiping to dry the car after the QD.

I detail cars all the time outside in the winter with temperatures in the 30s. Sucks for me, but I haven`t had any problems.
