    polish froze - can I still use it.

    Well, I found my new $30 bottle of polish in the garage the other day....No doubt it froze pretty hard over the cold winter. Is it now garbage, or can it still be used????

    I have had my Zaino Z2 bottle freeze in the past. When it froze it separated the liquid base from the particulates.
    Once the weather warmed up, I shook it up real well and it has worked just fine.

    I emailed Zaino about it and they said they "recommend" that their products be kept in a non-freezing area, and freezing may reduce the shelf life, but in general it does not damage their product. Just be sure to remix it thoroughly before use if it separates.

    Some products will seperate and not remix, while others can be shaken up and mix back together. Shake it up really well and see if you can get it back to a smooth, consistent mixture.

    Good luck,

    Thanks. I'll warm it up in a warm water bath and shake it up really good. If it mixes up well I guess I can assume it's OK to use. Thanks for the help.
