Does anyone have experience with aftermarket engraving of silver-plated instruments? This seems simple enough, until you realize that the silver plating is very thin. Does this require spot re-plating?

I'm considering this (nothing fancy, just personalization) for two or three instruments, and thought it would be wise to check on the pluses and minuses.

Assuming there's an acceptable procedure, what sort of place would do such work, and what (ballpark) should it cost?
