Too cold for detailing?

[CletusTheDwarf]

So i had some minor vandalism done to my car, and caused one small dent as well as a little belmish in the paint. On monday I'm having the paintless dent repair guy come fix the dent. I wanted to use some polish and scratchx and then re-wax the effected area before he comes. Right now it's about 30 degrees out. Is there anything wrong with using detailing products when it's this cold out?

Not sure about application, but a lot of our detailing supplies can't take freezing. I have had to throw out stuff that has frozen. ScratchX is one for sure. Never would mix up again when shaken. Looked like curdled milk. Then there's that whole wash water freezing before you're through thingy..........Tom :chuckle: :nixweiss

If it is 30 out, try working in a sunny location to heat the affected area above freezing. If it is going to warm up, I'd probably wait. I would imagine the friction of working the Scratch-X would keep any of the liquids from freezing while applying. Bring your products inside when done so they don't freeze. Used to live in Rochester, MI; don't miss this time of year up north. It's been in the low 80's in south Florida all week, should have washed my car yesterday - mid 60s today was a bit cool for us.
