I don't think Rich would mind me sharing this reply from our chat on FB here. This was the second message he sent me, the first being the price. He's an absolutely top bloke and the only possible justification for refinishing yourself is simply that you want to because you'd struggle to even do it yourself at material cost for what he does!

Rich prices himself (imho) far too competitively. I've had a couple of mates-rates finishes done by luthiers in London that were more expensive, even with postage costs to and from Wales. Honestly not as good either, and also not nitro.
I had a telecaster body painted by him a year or so ago. I won't mention his prices here, but (for me at least, given I don't like painting) I would really struggle to justify doing it myself. Anyway - might be worth asking him for a price, even if you're only vaguely considering it .
