    Collinite storage questions

    So as part of my spring cleaning ritual, I had clayed and cleansed the paint for my car last night and it got too late to apply the first coat of wax so I thought I'd do it today.

    In anticipation, I was reading the product guide for 845 and it said to dispose of the bottle if it was stored in below freezing temperatures. My garage is not insulated (yet) and it has definitely reached below 32 degrees at least once this winter. I am assuming it would be a good idea to follow the manufacturers recommendations on this one, correct?

    It sucks because it is virtually a brand new bottle. Only used once for my winter preparations last year.

    not so fast, put it in a hot water bath for 5 minutes then shake it up and see how it looks... if it's like milk, you're golden
    I told my wife that a husband is like a fine wine; he gets better with age. The next day, she locked me in the cellar.

    And from now on, keep your wax bottles inside the house :-)

    I keep all my products inside all year around lol but I as far as the Collinite goes, I don't think it should be a problem at all. Like embolism said, just put it in some hot water for a few minutes then sake it up and should be good to go!
