A&J Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Since winter is behind the door I was just wondering if OPT stuff can go bad if they freeze? I have most of my detailing stuff in the garage that is not heated or insulated so some of my liquids have frozen before during winter. If they happen to freeze, will it affect its performance in spring? Specifically Im asking for Hyper polish, ONR, optiseal, OCW and QD. Some of the stuff I can keep inside the house, but not all of them. Thanks for answering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setec Astronomy Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Since this question has been asked, perhaps we can get a comprehensive answer as to any OPT products that will be damaged if they get frozen, rather than just the ones you are specifically asking about.

A&J Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 Yeah sure why not! Lets re-phrase...Will freezing damage OPT products in general? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron@Optimum Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Since we're in Memphis and freezing isn't an issue, I checked with Yvan LaCroix (Canada) who said he's never had an issue with it. Dr G states the only Optimum products where freezing could effect performance are: Opti-Bond Tire Gel Optimum Tire Shine Optimum Compound Optimum Polish Poli-Seal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setec Astronomy Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Um...that doesn't make much sense. If the tire products are effected, then logically the interior dressing would be as well. And if the compound and polish are effected, then Finish should be, also. And if those three are effected, then the spray polishes should be too. I mean that's just the way it seems to me, I may not know what I'm talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A&J Posted October 14, 2016 Author Share Posted October 14, 2016 So basically all polishes and tyre dressings can go bad! OK thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron@Optimum Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 I'm not the chemist, but that's what the good doctor says. All polishes are prone to separation, regardless of temperatures. And again, Yvan indicates he's had no problem with product freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
