Were you testing 2.1mm thicknesses or thinner? How often (hours per week) do you play? If you've tested the 2.1mm and liked it and train very regularly, then maybe go for it. Regular practice makes adjustment easy. Also have you asked your coach about it? The coach is usually one of the best...

Maybe look for all wood off- type blade with hard top ply. Speed will be working against you in this one.

Looks like group of death... LOLZ

I usually polish my blades instead of lacquering. You have to be careful though. You can't take off too much material. (i go 600 -> 1000 -> 2000 grit sandpaper) Again, if you take too much material, you will change playing characteristics.
