This is what I used specifically.
I’m still considering the top coat. I’ve read a lot of people used the Rustoleum crystal clear enamel and then there’s an automotive clear enamel. I’m gonna research that a little more tonight. It has to be good enough that UVs aren’t going to turn it yellow.

Mine is 22 years old, purchased by my dad new and given to me and still going strong. I work from home so I’m sitting in it 6-10 hours a day 5 days a week. I had to replace the lumbar support bar, the foam pad near the bottom of the seat and the meshing on the seat itself part but otherwise it’s been a dream.
Also, for anyone that has the dark gunmetal gray “base” (is that what it’s called? what the wheels are attached to) the Rust-Oleum in flat metallic soft iron is a perfect match for the factory paint. I have a tendency to put my feet on that part and wear the paint off. Every few years I take it outside and give it a touch up.
Edited my previous comment with the link, but here's a picture of how my bike turned out
