IMO - i would do it after fermentation is complete, stabilized, degassed, backsweetened. I "think" you can cold stabilize when you add fining agents. I usually do the CS before fining - if i add fining agents at all.
Is CS done with reds only? So the theory is you put the carboy in the fridge wait a couple of weeks, and then either re-rack or bottle? bk
And these "acid crystals" will assimilate back into the wine after it warms up? bk
