Con Autograph Question Need help figuring out how to get a metal poster signed and preserved

I know its a bit of a stupid question, but hear me out because I am stupid.

I'm planning on heading to a con soon and I have this one-of-a-kind metal poster that I'd love for some voice actors to sign. But I'm worried that, because this is a metal poster and not a paper poster, the signature will get wiped off fairly easily.

A friend suggested getting some blank white stickers to put on and have them sign that so it doesn't get wiped away, but I wanted to hear other suggestions or ideas that people might have

Edding 750 paint marker has worked really well on my aluminum metal art pieces. Sharpies are ok but are prone to fading and don’t write with consistency. Like if the person signs too quickly the lines are faded a lot and don’t look so good.

Once signed, you could put a clear coat over the entire sign. Just be certain the chemistry of one doesn't affect the other.
