    Which chemicals most vulnerable to freezing temperatures?

    As I recall, HydrO2 and Bead Maker are especially vulnerable to freezing. I don't have space to store every chemical inside so I want to prioritize. I'm thinking some of them can spend the winter in the garage refrigerator at 40 degrees F instead of risking damage. What other chemicals are known to go bad below freezing?

    •Even though their actual freeze-points may be
    somewhat affected/(somewhat lowered) by other
    ingredients in their specific formulations...

    -IMO: shouldn't one be able to assume that the
    biggest majority of water-based Detailing products
    will be prime subjects ‘to freeze’ when brought to
    bear against temperatures of 32°F, and below?


    Just curious:
    In what part of California do you reside, to
    be so concerned with freezing temperatures?

    We live in the mountains. We're not going to see crushing temperatures like say Michigan or Sweden, but will flirt with 20F from time-to-time.

    Makes me cold just thinking about it.
