Stand paint

[Craigdillman]

Looking good, I painted mine black but wanted the same thing as you I asked the guys at rona and told them it would be high humidity and I probably at some point would spill saltwater on it they gave me a behr primer(ill look at the exact name) I think and ill double check on the paint but it was a standard flat black paint they said it would be fine.

Ask the paint guys at the store they usually know their stuff

I'd roll on the primmer with a foam roller, once dry sand any rough sections and reapply if needed. Then spray top coat with gloss white enamel. Use whatever brand you prefer provided both primer and top coat are oil based and rated for exterior use.

I used Kilz water/mildew repellent, painted mine in white high gloss with a foam roller. This stuff lays on pretty thick.. with 2 coats you can really see the wood grain anymore.
