Good exterior paint

[Hoang N Nguyen]

Hi guys,
I'm nearing the end of my build and it's about time to start painting soon. It's a table and cabinet for my big green egg which will live the rest of it's life outside on my deck once done. I'm in need of a good exterior paint that will hold up to the weather for years to come without peeling or fading. I also want a nice smooth finish as well since it is a piece of furniture. Any suggestions is greatly appreciate, thanks in advance.

Rustoleum.....
Good hard oil based enamel that will stand up to a lot of exterior weather and fairly hard use.
It's good on wood or metal.


Plus - you can be 100% sure there are no mildewcides in it that will add a ***unique flavor*** to any food that comes in contact with the paint.
"Exteriror" paints in general? The better ones will probably have some kind of mildew agent.
