Building an underground wine cellar. At the painting stage. Any suggestions on recommended types of paint that help in moss control.

You're worried about moss?
Is this outdoors?
In the N hemisphere, it usually grows on the north, or shady, side of the trees, so try to keep your cellar exposure on the south side.
Unless your cellar is constantly damp, I don't think you'll have a problem with that though.

I'm guessing he meant mold.
I use Kilz.
My cellar is on the damp side, but mold problems are more on labels than on the walls.

Most manufacturers make mildew resistant paints. Sherwin Williams has a paint specifically made for baths called, interestingly, Bath Paint. They also have another interior latex product called Harmony which is also resistant to mold.

What are you painting? Drywall? Brick? Cement? Plaster?
