Krylon Triple Thick is good stuff. Unheated doesn't matter when you take the steps to preserve.

It's just delaying the inevitable. Now instead of two disparate thaw/freeze temps you have three. Glass just doesn't hold onto ink/paint forever when the temp is frequently changing.

I have heat and air conditioning. I built a separate structure to house the heat pump so I wouldn't lose any space for games.

Not necessarily. I have had mixed results with TT...it just depends on the glass. Also, TT just holds the paint together...if it's going to separate, the paint will still come off the glass...triple thick coating and all.
I have also had TT ruin a good glass by pulling all the paint off after it dried.
Use that stuff with caution!
ChadTower:
Yeah, I only use it with backglasses that have a problem. Since I work mostly in games that have been broken for a 10-15 years I end up using it on most of my games. I have a couple that I left alone because they didn't need it. I have yet to have TT ruin a backglass. I had one scary moment, though, where it saturated all of a specific ink layer, and it curled up. It settled down and adhered back to the glass when it dried but for a little while I was convinced I had trashed a replacement backglass I just bought.
