Looking for opinions on how good/safe it is to leave auto detailing products in a garage throughout the cold Canadian Winters?

For the most part, it's an uninsulated garage - but it's my workshop, and there's no air leaks or anything. It easily gets to -20 C (sometimes to -30) throughout the winter months... some days around 0, the next day, back to -20.

How good or safe is it to keep all types of detailing products stored in my cart/cabinets thorughout the winter?
Waxes/Polishes/QD etc....

Some might be alright, some might not be. What would you want to bring into the house if anything?
 
Lots of my products have to be kept 59-77 degrees F, and a few others say avoid extreme heat and cold. So I keep all my expensive stuff inside the house in a corner of the basement.
 
All my supplies are put into a bin in my electrical closet for the winter. It stays around 60 degrees there. I just don't want to lose any of my investment in goodies to the weather.
 
As mentioned, a lot of my products say avoid freezing or high temp.
 
Where I live in New England I typically see winter temps down to -12 or so which is way to cold for detailing products. In late fall, I move them from my shed and garage to the basement in my home where they hibernate until the glaciers recede in the spring.

Same here. I move it all inside and keep a few favorites in a bag so on weekends when I heat the garage I can easily bring some products out with me. Winter stinks!
 
Because detailing has been a large investment for me, i spent $30 month in the winter months for climate controlled storage. Often times these storages dont require a year long commitment. My storage keeps everything at 70 degrees.
