Default Crackle finish paint, lacquer or not?

I've not seen this paint for real, only in photos online and it always looks to be a matt finish. Would lacquering over the top of the crackle look ok or not?

I'm wanting to do some engine parts but would like to make it as durable as possible without spoiling the look of it.
