TIL'd This Week: Orange Seal's Freezing Point, confirmed
So we hit -5F ambient outside, or so, overnight Thursday-Friday. Moved my bike in the garage (parked near the door), of course it isn't quite that cold inside....and heard something rubbing/abrading the tire. Yup. Orange Seal's freezing points listed:
"What is the temperature range of Orange Seal sealants? Regular: 12 °F, Endurance: 8 °F, Sub Zero: –20 °F"
Are probably right on
And...once it warmed up again yesterday, returned to liquid.

I wonder if it is still good when it thaws.
Does it have to be replaced now?

Sidenote...given the lesson learned, and also the -10F forecast for Wednesday-bikes are proper-indoors where it is warmer for the week
