I have a garage where I can do this where it stays considerably warmer than the temp outside. If I were to wash it with the steam cleaner, then let it normalize to garage temp, then drive it into the cold, do you think that would be better? I mean, I completely understand what you are saying about shocking the paint and know this is still a HUGE risk.
I was thinking more along the lines of using the steam cleaner to mist down the paint like a spray bottle would do and then quickly wiping it down with the microfiber cloth attachment...
