Default Zaino-ing in cold weather??

What's the coldest temp I should be able to apply zaino? Are there any effects of applying zaino when the temp is below 50 F? I know it will probably take a long time to dry, but I don't know if and when we're going to have some warmer weather around here, I'd like to devote this weekend to polishing up my car and getting it ready for the winter shutdown. Thanks...

The only side effect that I'm aware of is that the drying time increases exponentially (or so it seems) when the temp goes below 60 or 65. It took about 4 hours for a coat to dry when I did it last fall (55 degrees?). The coat looked and functioned the same as the earlier coats (applied in warmer weather).

You can use their accelerator (new this year) and decrease the time needed in the cool.
