What does the Smooth Sheet PEI build plate look like?

I ordered a MK3 kit a couple of weeks ago. It arrived earlier this week and I have fully assembled it! Hooray! One question I have is related to the build plate. I was not able to order the powder-coated build plate, so what I got was labeled in the store as "Spring steel sheet with smooth double-sided PEI Sheet". I'm curious as to what this looks like because the build plate I received looks like there is not coating at all on it, just the bare steel with the logo and grid printed on it. Is the PEI film clear? Is that why it just looks like a bare steel sheet? Thanks!

My PEI has a slight yellow tinge, and the two holes in the metal sheet, at the front of the build plate are obviously filmed over on both sides
