So, this is a question that resulted from my Wife trying to make a point that she does not agree with my thought process (what else is new, amirite husbands?!?)

In my build thread you'll see that I am choosing to paint the interior of my stand black before I place my sump and face frames in.

SO my question to all is, what color would YOU choose for your stand/cabinet interior?
 
On my black stands, I paint the inside white. It makes it easier to do maintenance and provides a very nice contrast.
 
Darker colors will show salt creep, splashes, drips, etc. which you inevitably will get. Gotta go with the mrs. on this one.
 
White gloss ONLY! IMO. Never even once have I thought that I could see too well inside the stand. Black would make it cave like.
