   For exterior projects like this , personally, I prefer to use the penetrating type finishes.

   A few examples of brands would be Sikens, Cabot and Olympic.

   I use garden sprayer to apply a coat of Olympic oil each year to the cedar siding of my shop.

   A film finish like an exterior (spar) varnish can be a big PIA to maintain each year. The penetrating type oils are simplicity personified.

   It's all a matter of personal taste and how much elbow grease you want to invest each year.

   Good luck.
