It depends on how sub zero you are talking about. The Lowest Operation Use Temperature (LOUT) for the fluid used depends on the mix ratio. The de-icing operator would determine that for you.

If it is a clear day (no precipitation or active frost), then only the clean wing concept applies - there is no hold over limit.
