if you're covering the paint with plastic, then it probably doesn't matter.

if paint is the final finish, then it will need to be really durable, because the oils in your hands will mess it up.

if you have a spray booth, you could use automotive lacquer. if not, i would suggest a marine epoxy. both of these are expensive products, but they should last a long time.

at a minimum, you could use any sort of paint, and cover it with several coats of polyurathane.
