I think it will depend on your skill level if you are fairly good at painting, warping ect then I would give it a bash.
But it also would depend on costs to purchase and do it yourself and costs for the pros to do it.

Very easy to do but you must use clear coat to protect it

its one of those things its all about technique after dipping and the cleaning and prep work. just need a steady hand for dipping. hardest part will be getting a perfect finish with the lacquer
best thing to do is go for it and give it a go mate thats how I learned most things haha
