Drylock fumes were pretty bad painting the inside. That stuff is very gritty, I would rather find an epoxy paint that was smooth, but it will work, I guess.
Interesting. I don't think I could find a straight furing strip in my area if I drove to every lumber yard in town!
A couple of comments on the paint. Did you get the latex based drylok? I have done a couple of small areas to test the product and have not noticed a smell, although in an enclosed cabinet it might make it worse. If you did happen to use the oil-based drylok you should really give the cage a while to offgas as it's pretty nasty stuff.
Epoxy paints are nice but VERY expensive. Instead of the drylok I would probably use a one-part concrete floor paint, although I think for this design it would not be flexible enough for the pegboard.
