absolutely not in the garage !!! keep it indoors - i keep mine in the basement . i left very expensive paint in my garage a few years back and it was ruined. if its in the warmer months, you're ok with the garage, but as soon as it starts getting cold, bring it inside.

A old ref. can be used as a storage box for cans of paint,and other supplies that can freeze in a unheated garage. A person could also rewire the inside light to the thermostat to turn on and off as if it was sending "juice" to the compressor--not too hard to do. This keeps everything warm inside --just run a power line to it and set the thermostat--then forget about it. Keep the storage temperature above 32F(freezing)on your supplies--say around 50F.Cold freezing temperatures will destroy many supplies , including paint.

you have gotten used a latex paint (water based) over an oil based paint. The previous "water and oil do no longer mixture" axiom jewelry real right here. Wait till it is thoroughly dry, sand the partitions, prep the exterior slightly greater suitable, top and paint returned. communicate with the people in the paint dept at a house progression shop just to make particular.

Because latex is a water based paint you should never let it freeze. Enamel is an oil based paint. Latex being water based is safe to store inside.

All paint needs to be stored at a regulated temp, otherwise it could freeze or dry out usually 65 to 80 is a good temp area to keep it.

fluctuations in room temp may have an adverse effect on the latex after some time, best to keep it in the garage.

You can keep latex paint anywhere you want, as long as it doesn't freeze.
