I leave my products in the trunk of the car. In the recent cold spell on the east, some of my products froze. They were probably frozen for 24 hours before I brought them in.



I only confirmed that my Lexol and a spray bottle of QEW/water froze. But I assume that my QD and maybe even my NXT froze. (It was about 12 degrees over night.)



Once they thaw are these products still useable?



BTW - I`ve gotten a lot of great tips from this board, but this is my first post!



THANKS!!!

I am always very careful about freezing detailing products. I think there would be some type of reaction with the product upon freezing.

I know the Gummipflege bottle says "keep away from frost" so obviously the manufacturer doesn`t advise allowing the product to freeze.

I recently opened a QEW bottle which I keep in my garage (temp is about 40 F at night, never below freezing). When ripped the seal, I`ve heard a very loud pop, almost like the bottle exploded. I`m not sure if this is normal for QEW or if this was caused by temperature but it was so loud that I almost dropped the bottle.

Ya i know but I can`t help thinking about those people who get the UPS del early in the moring and there stuff is out in freeing weather for most of the day I`m guessing it`s not a great idea to keep freezing and thawing but if it happened once or twice i think it would be ok.. I guess what i`m saying is i need to do more cars to replace the frozen stuff..
