    When is it safe to bring your chemicals out from storage from the winter?

    I was wondering when it is safe to bring your chemicals that were stored away for the winter back to the garage or shed? I know certain polishes and chemicals freeze in extreme cold and I was wondering at what temperature it is OK to bring them back out.

    12 degrees in Milwaukee today. So ready to get out and do a spring detail, but the way things are going it looks like I'll have to wait until the middle of July.

    I started bringing mine out last weekend. My garage stays about 10-15 degrees warmer than the outside temp.

    This year...around memorial day.
    In my day we didn't have the Internet, iPods,iPads, or smart phones....but we had some really bad-azz cars.
