    Some products act up a little in cold weather, but if your just doing the interior, you should be fine.

    You can keep the car running to warm up the interior with the products your using
    and that should you with the cold weather.

    Heat the car up usually works, or try to park it in the sun. Run the defroster to get the windshield clean.

    like everyone else already said run the car to warm it up. and as long as your products have been stored inside they should be good

    Not really. It was in the upper 40`s today while I tried to finish up a review I agreed to do.

    It is not too bad as long as the wind is not blowing but always need to work in the shade so do not get that much advantage of any sun.

    Haha, I wouldn`t have even thought about running the car heat/defrost to keep it warm. But then again, I live in South GA

    I detailed an NSX in Tampa several years ago when it was SNOWING. I don`t know how you northern people can do it!
