We always used a laquer of some sort in production to seal off sterling and gold platings. Patinas as well will seal the surface but that is a specific look and not applicable to stailnless ....."I think"
Stainless might not need anything. One of the benefits of stainless is well....its stainless. Resists rusts and oxidations. Then again you will have to experiment and be the judge. I have not put this to the test just my assumption.
