    Products stored in Garage

    Good Day All:

    As my newbie collection of AutoGeek supplies grow with wax's, cleaners, detailers ect ect I was wondering if those who live in a Cold Climate like Chicago store their products in the house to protect from freezing? If so, I need to start making some room indoors cuz winter will be here before you know and I have to plan!

    thanks!

    Yes, during the winter I move all my detailing products inside although my garage is heated.

    I'm not going to use them during the winter anyway and I figure why take a chance. Just in case I leave the door up accidentally or it's up too long when I'm shoveling snow.

    I store all polishes, sealants, wax and clay in a closet inside the house

    Move 'em inside during winter. Most of the products we use should not be allowed to freeze.

    My stuff stays in the garage 24/7/365 and I've never had any problems with product going bad.... but my garage never gets below about 40*F.

    Re: Products stored in Garage

    Hi all,

    Well, I'm in Montreal (here, winter gets pretty cold, - 13 F would be a normal day of winter) and my stuff stays in the garage (heated to about 59 F) and it is all working perfectly.

    But I still enjoy winter and the snow. Just bad for the cars...

    I would advise that any product which comes in contact with the finish be stored where the ambient temperature is 40F or above.

    Your detailing products represent a significant investment and investing 30 minutes or so moving them where there's no danger of freezing is a wise decision.

    Yeah but you're garage is pretty f'en amazing looking. Mine isn't heated or cooled so I store all my products but pads inside the house.
