Home Depot sells a porch and floor paint. You prime your floor and then use the porch and floor paint comes in many colors lasts a long time provided you take the proper steps to prep the floor.. oh yeah its latex...What do i paint indoor stairs with?
POLYURETHANE WOULD MAKE THE STAIRS VERY SLIPPERY IF EITHER THE STAIRS OR YOUR SHOES GET WET. MY MOTHER BROKE HER ANKLE WHEN SHE FELL ON SOME OUTSIDE STAIRS THAT WERE POLYERETHANED.

You could paint them with floor paint, but wood stain would wear better.





Either way, I would also apply 2 coats of polyurethane afterward.
theres that self leveling paint but dont know if you could put it on steps maybe you can paint it on
See if the stairs are treated. If they are the paint won't last. You will need to prime it also.


have you thought of staining them?
Paint!
