Paint for OSB Board.

Can anyone suggest a pint or color that would look good on OSB board. We have it in a garden gym but want to make it look better.

Shot in the dark… but have a look at Cromarty in estate eggshell (20% sheen) or similar. It's green without being overly green. The finish won't show up the variation in the wood as much.

I’d go with satin rather than matte. And a warm light blue. OSB is bleak in white
