The magazines don't care, [;)] this is all cosmetic. The most durable finish is already on the mags, that shows when the outside finish wears off.
If you want a few pretty magazines for photo shoots or to impress your buddies refinish them with SFL or PermaSilk-G.
It's better to leave the rest of them alone, they'll stay reliable even with they're down to the bright gold anodizing. The wrong finish can mess up their functionality.
