sorry but this is nonsense. the pic you are showing is a movie set and Wolfgang Petersen (Das Boot) clearly says in one of his interviews that U-96 was painted grey inside for cinematic reasons.
german and american subs (and Tanks!!) in WWII where painted mostly WHITE inside to make use of as much light as possible.
