Can I store paint in a wooden shed in the winter when it is below freezing?
I bought a few gallons of paint. I opened 2 cans and 1 hasn’t been opened yet. In the USA state that I live in, the average temperature during the winter months is about 30 degrees, but sometimes it goes down to 10 degrees. Will the paint be good next summer if I store it in a cold wooden shed for the winter?
I dont think so because i had too bought some but it became like a pudding the next month.
sure why not

Yes you can but turn the paint tins upside down so that the skin that forms on the paint will be at the bottom when you turn the tins the right way up

No. Read the labels on the cans for storage directions for the brand of paint you have. Most say to protect from freezing or extreme heat, like temps above 115F.

If the paint is latex (water base) it is very likely it will be ready for the trash come spring. Oil base paint (alkyd) will still be usable after freezing.
