Well Guys, it is coming to that time of the year again where it is close to freezing. I have boxed up all my liquids (shampoos, polishes, cleaners etc) & brought them in the house.

SWMBO says I am sad, am I? IMO I was concerned that the liquids would freeze & this would effect how good the products were once thawed out. Also bottles, trigger heads splitting.

So what is the general feeling about this?

Garage or house?

I keep them inside, look at them smell them and give me a big smile.
BTW I think AG shampoo should be kept inside

Your shampoo is safe, don't worry

I leave mine in the garage all year round..Never had any problem apart from the snow foam freezing solid last year!! But it was -12C !!

I was going to do that, but after last year the SRP & Shampoo froze solid & It hit -17at ours. I found when they thawed out they were watery. Then read that when some products freeze then it knackers them up. Anyway they are in my office & I like to smell them...lol

If you can find a list of products that are knackered by freezing, I'll check my cupboards and bring them in

I can only say what knacked mine up, the SRP & AG shampoo. I'll try & find the link, although I don't remember it being product specific. It was something to do with crystalisation. I would bring the P1 in.

I had both those last winter..They were fine

Mine were knackered & also AG glass polish. The SRP bottle split, the polish & shampoo went very watery & a bit grainy.

I'll keep any eye on temperatures
My PW will need to be brought in too when it gets really cold

I drained mine & wrapped it in some old carpet & blankets. Neighbour saw me, I bet she thought "nutter"

 

[robbo51]

I put mine in the Hall cloakroom..Got a bollocking but it stayed there!

 

[Kotsos]

Mine are in my room, when i want to relax i open the lusso and smell it, makes me feel so calm

Keep mine in a small cupboard in the kitchen, wife can't say anything she keeps her nail varnish in the fridge.

Agreed, often find lipstick in our fridge, voting is quite close...DW voting vastly in favour of indoors.

The tops of all my bottles were chewed to bits when I went to get them out a week or two ago, so they're all now in the house.

Also lost a pair of wellies and two landing nets to my furry little guests

Inside for me only because I dont have a garage

the missus hates it

Inside is a must for most products really. When a product freezes not everything in it does so at the same temperature and that is why it separates and often wont remix properly if at all.
