I have just been out to take a rather large can of flea spray out of the car (bought for my old old as just before I left one of my rental properties was left with tiny biting of a problem due to her cats)

and i didn't fancy that blowing up in the car

I wonder how cold it needs to be before my de-icer will blow up

Maybe AndyC can go Mythbustering and leave a can out side till it blows  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Had a similar problem last week when I forgot I had a glass bottle of fizzy water in the rear door pocket. Fortunately when the glass broke it was all contained in the door pocket and I found it before it started to thaw, would have given me a hell of a fright if it had happened while I was driving. Partially filled plastic bottles only from now on.

That's a good point about de-icer, I would think there'll be a temperature range on the can for safe storage? Mine: 2012 Golf GTI Edition 35

de-icer is glycol ethenol type stuff and shrinks on cooling.

Interesting thread and thank goodness I read it now - Just remembered I had a pressurised can of Tyre repair stuff in the boot with the spare since summer and which is now safely indoors (just in case)

PS - this stuff has to be used at +10C if needed 2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.
