My builder's touch-up paint was stored in the kitchen, and it all dried out. No matter where you store the paint, if you keep it in a metal can, it can either dry out, or, the can will rust and the paint will leak. So, I wouldn't store it in a kitchen cabinet. But, I don't think the garage is too warm if you use air tight containers.

I found that the builder used "Florida Paints" on my house. There is a Florida Paint store on Wedgewood Lane where they will sell you the paint for your house using your Villages ID card to match the colors.
