Cylinder head cover removal for painting

my Cylinder head cover has the paint flaking off and is very unsightly. if I remove it to paint, do I have to replace the head gasket when re-assembling?

Should the mounting surface better be left untouched?

I guess high temperature paint is to be used, but how high and where to get, Sherwin Williams?
