Maple is a good paint grade wood. Though, of the woods you could choose from, it is probably on the more expensive side.
Commonly, lower grades of maple with mineral streaks or darker grain are used for painted projects.
Other common paint grade woods are Birch and Poplar.
Any closed grain hardwood would likely suffice.
For best results use a primer or sanding sealer first coat underneath your final coat. This will give better results.
