Any quality exterior rated paint. Or use a transparent deck sealer. Behr makes a 5-6 year transparent deck sealer. It blows away something like Thompson’s in performance. You could also stain it whatever color you wanted then seal.

Keep in mind paint can scrape off, just like when people use the deck stain that is a solid color like paint. They slide a deck chair across it and there goes finish and protection.

definitely do not use Thompsons, it is a different formula than 20 years ago
