Suggestions for hardest, most durable paint coat for shelves

[blueman]

What is the hardest, most durable choice of paint for painting shelves? We want to minimize scratching and marks on the closet shelves which will be used for a combination of books, games, and clothes.

For your purpose, polyurethane. Hell, even a decent oil paint. What you *DON'T* want is latex "paint".

Pick any porch and floor paint (except latex types). Polyurethanes are exceptionally wear resistant, probably your best choice. HTH
