Satin or gloss won’t make any difference. Personally I’d get it done professionally as it should be grit blasted - paint adheres much better to a rough surface than smooth - and apply a primer before the final coats.
A DIY effort is going to look pretty awful IMHO.
I did some research recently as I’ve been thinking of repainting the MK91 OTA.
Or you could have one of the weird bi-colour paint jobs with a white base then a coloured clear coat over that. These aren’t DIY though. Maybe add some yellow/red flames, a long antenna with foxtail (extra wifi reception) and mount it on some wide chrome mags under for portability...
