Default Garage wall finish?

My winter project is going to be to finish off my garage. It is
presently heated, insulated and drywalled. What kind of finish should
I have put on the walls? Plaster? Kalkote? Is there something I can
put on, then paint with at good paint so when I want to clean the
garage I can come in and just hose the walls down without damaging
them? I had my kitchen updated a couple years back and they used
kalkote. Fiberglass tape on the joints, spread the kalkote over the
tape and any small imperfections in the drywall, looked less labor
intensive than filling and sanding seams.

Thanks
