it literally came off very easily. the only time i used distilled water
was where i accidentally overlapped too much. no elbow grease.

I did the same when I first bought BoS. But in regards to cold temps I am probably using 1/4 teaspoon worth for a door/fender. So I (think) am spreading it on pretty thin. I just have noticed when cold it will cake and haze quickly. But I like to use the method of thin coat the entire MINI, let it sit over night, then thin coat sections and buff. Puts a great hard coat on that way. But even when I do that, I still keep my garage in the 60's range.
