I'm putting up some walls and a subfloor in our basement. I've read in some places to put a vapor barrier right against the bare concrete walls, then stud it, then insulate and put up another barrier. Some other books say to omit the one against the concrete. I'm thinking I just paint it with a good basement paint. There's no water coming in, just an overall dampness. I assume the same goes for the floor? Just paint it, or plastic then stud and insulate, then plywood over that?
