Paint Technician

Turn your hands-on paint and body work experience into a career with us!

We are looking for a skilled Paint Technician, someone who takes pride in clean prep work, smooth finishes, accurate color matching, and high-quality results. If you have real-world experience with painting, light body work, surface preparation, or equipment refinishing, we want to hear from you.

What you will do (essential job functions):

• Safely and efficiently operate all equipment including grinders, sanders, and spray equipment
• Surface preparation including pressure washing, cleaning, grinding, sandblasting and degreasing

• Knowledge of paint mixing, color matching, and application techniques

• Understanding of body repair techniques and processes
