You could say that about any walls in any part of a home - not sure
why it would be more of a concern in a basement.
There's no reason that a basement has to have the typical basement
gray color. �I don't like white or gray for basement walls, it looks
too industrial and/or harsh. �Pick an off-white that works with
whatever you use for the floor. �I just redid a laundry room and went
with a sand colored epoxy with the chips in it - hides a multitude of
sins. �Rustoleum water-based garage floor paint, very easy to apply.
The sand color is a lot easier on the eyes than a gray, IMO.

concrete basement floors are best left bare concrete.
once you paint once its a maintence issue forever.slide a washing
machine out for repair, paint now has scrape mark.
