I wanted a durable, nice looking finish that had little to no maintenance and would last for 20+ years. The epoxy and cloth sealed the wood and hopeful prevents the plywood from checking and makes it water tight, and then the Monstaliner paint provides UV protection with a color that matched my Jeep and that resist scratches. So far it has only been 3 years but the finish has held up very well. I can power wash after a trip and I occasionally spray wax the paint and wipe down with a cloth.
There are several options and I think they all will work. Really comes down to what you like.
