Question too cold to Zaino??

I was getting ready to place my order for Zaino and planned to wax the crap out of the car while it's in storage this winter.

Does wax need to be applied in a certain temperature? Is there ever a time when it is too cold to wax(other than when my hands freeze, )?

Thanks!!

Here's what I've found in my area: Ideally, a temp over 65* is perfect Zainoing weather. It'll usually dry in about 30 to an hour, depending on conditions. Between 40* and 60* you'll just need to wait longer for Zaino to dry (maybe 1.5 to 2 hrs), but you should still get great results. And, IMO, if it's under 30* I wont bother, just not worth freezing my butt off when I know the car is already well protected with the coats I already have on.
Hope this helps...

I've applied Zaino (which isn't a "wax") in the upper 30's before.

Kevin V- just out of curiosity, if Zaino isn't a wax, what do they condsider it. I've never used the stuff before and was just wondering.
