Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Je connais pas ce mot, effectivement le dictionnaire parle de maquillage. Je n’ai pas le contexte de la bd mais je pense que ça veut dire qu’il faut maquiller le monsieur de façon à ce qu’il passe pour un gaulois afin de s’infiltrer sans éveiller les soupçons.

This is a case of ethical dative with -moi. It's to note a certain interest, involvement from the targeted person.
The sentence means something like "disguise him as a Gaul for me".
Would the sentence still work without moi ?
