Paint questions

1. do acrylic paints (regular and airbrush ready) expire?

there's nothing stamped on any bottle i've seen to date. there's also no manufacturing date marked on any. so do these things last forever so long as they're pretty much air tight?

2. what is the ideal storage temperature for acrylic paints?

I've invested a lot in Vallejo acrylic sets and Garage Kit Colors sets and want to store them correctly. right now since there's a lot I store them in my garage. but one of the downsides of living in sunny coastal San Diego is that the temp now can reach into the 90s...and that's coastal temp! I'm thinking in my garage the temp reaches close to 100 since it's like a hair dryer on full blast when I go in there. I just want to know if it's OK to store my paints in my garage with 100s temp for a long period of time. to be safe I've moved them into one of my air conditioned rooms where it's a nice 64 temp...but they just add to the clutter so I want them in the garage really.
