Hi All,
I forgot and left an unopened tub of Sheetrock brand ready-mixed all-purpose joint compound (with the green lid) in the car overnight when the temp dropped to 14 (above 0). Can I still return it to Lowe’s without affecting my karma?
Thanks for any advice!

Why not try to use it? I had some mud freeze overnight recently but in spite of my worst fears, it seems to be fine.
If you left it out one night in our neighborhood we bring it in and warm it up. Mix it with a paddle and see if it smoothes out. Bingo you save a trip and some cash. If it smells sour dump it. good luck
Thaw it, whip it, use it. Have used mud many times that has been fozen more than once. To this point have never had a problem or a call back on a job that used frozen mud. Frozen mud or frozen paint, They have frozen during shipping you just did'nt know it.

Frozen paint that has seperated or congealed, I won't use.
Have used "soft froze" joint compound quite a number of times. - with no problems, and on my own projects where I could watch them for years.
Neither one of these scenarios would I ever consider taking the product back to make it someone else's problem because of my undersight. That's bad karma.

Thaw it. Paddle whip it, and move on. It'll be fine. Have done it many times.
no way.
