Currently in San Antonio, Texas it is a bone chilling 42 degrees! At what temperature does Wolfgang Sealant, Pinnacle Souveran paste, and Pinnacle Souveran liquid either cease to be affective or effectiveness significantly altered. My garage is warmer but not sure how much warmer.
 
Get a kerosene heater and youll be fine, make sure to follow the manufacturers directions :P

Bone chilling? It was -19F here last night and my friends in Montana and the Dakotas think that's balmy!

p.s. - I don't wax below 45F.
 
sorry to bear bad news but were back to 82 today in S Florida.
 
high temp today in iowa was -4 with -20 to -30 below wind chills. not fun
 
I put a coat of Souveran on my truck Saturday. It was 50 degrees here in Ohio. Waiting on spring! But anytime the temp gets up I wax my ride.
 
It will just take longer to cure.
 
Get a thermometer and check, you might be surprised at the temperature difference in your garage. Mine is not well insulated and is consistently about 10 degrees warmer than the outside temperature.
My personal experience has been that about 50 degrees in the garage is about as low as it should be for me to get decent results. 60 is kind of the magic number. At 60 and above, polishes, QDs, waterless washes, waxes, sealants all seem to work at their best.
