near white finish alternative

Our finish specification calls for all exterior storefront steel, interior door & frames; stairs & handrails and other ornamental steel sections to be buffed to a "near white finish" and sealed with a clear matte non-yellowing sealant. We welcome advice on a more durable, lower maintenance finish system on steel than replicates a stainless steel or bright aluminum finish.
