Default Mechanics of getting a repro engraving recut and case colored

I know more then a few members have had their Repro engraving recut/chased etc after the fact and then also sent it out for case color hardening. Since as far as I know, repros were never case color hardened to start with, do they require annealing before the engraving is recut, or can the engraver just recut/engrave them as they are and then send them out for case color hardening? Just trying to understand the process and I would believe this is a place where the knowledge is best obtained. Thanks much. Tom
