If it's liquid, expect that it will freeze. If you are mobile, you would be good to get a few totes to store everything in to make it easier to bring in and out of the house each day.

My detailing supplies are all in my garage which is not heated.
None of them froze and I am in Northern New Jersey.

Products in my garage have never frozen either in my un-heated garage. The heat from the cars parked in it for the night plus any minor radiant heat from the interior walls seem to keep the temps close (+/-) to freezing for most of the night.

What I have observed is some products get really viscous. Meguiars Gold Class Car Shampoo gets stiffer than molassas when very cold and almost won't pour out of the bottle at all.

I am not a detailer but I have had several products over the years freeze and go bad on me. I do live in a colder area than Va though so maybe that has a bearing. I now store all my products in the basement when winter sets in.:xyxthumbs:
