I have done this quite a few times, and then buffed the radio out. Be carefull if you do any masking the lacquer will soften the PP for a while and you can lift it off.

The only minor issue I have seen is on one radio the non photofinish area had som finish areas that were lifting bit not visable. After being sprayed they were slightly lighter. The only option there would have been to strip those areas like the arch. But again, watch that masking tape.
