Hi folks
I wanted to inform you that Rob Fleet, former spray shop and CNC manager at SimS Guitars in Ashford Kent, has now set up his own shop after the announcement of SimS closing its doors. Some of you would have already dealt with Rob whilst he was at SimS for the last 18 years or so. Rob handled all spray work and CNC machinery of bodies, necks and pick guards, and also machines all my bodies, necks and guards for my vintage spec guitars Ince MB Guitars started.
He is now offering these services under his own company RF Custom, so please do reach out to Rob if you were looking for custom paint / refinishing work or a new custom guitar body, neck or pickguard.
I worked with Rob for many years at SimS and we have worked on a lot of great projects over the years and his attention to detail is incredible, he is considered one of, if not the best in the country, and he is very reliable!
Below are a few example of his spray work and there's more info and pics of his website: rfcustom.co.uk

Rob has sprayed a number of our guitars in the last 5 years and very good results....
Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.

I would normally top coat with polyester where possible, as its the cheaper option for the customer, but with this colour choice I thought the poly would alter the orange too much. The poly has a slight yellow/brown tint to it, that usually isn't a problem, but some colours just require and need the Acrylic.
I can certainly vouch for the quality of @RobFleet's work: the finish on my guitar is absolutely perfect. If it wasn't for the fact that Charvel don't do it in this colour I'd have had no idea that it was a refinish

I wanted to get a cool paint job on my Fuzz Face enclosure at some point. Sort of thinking metallic racing green with a gold or yellow stripe.
Been uploading old tracks I recorded ages ago and hopefully some new noodles here.
Thanks
Rob.
