Full Job Description

You already know how to paint. Now work somewhere that actually cares how the finish turns out.

If you’ve spent time spraying cars and you’re tired of rushed production work, poor prep, or fighting bad bodywork before you even pick up the gun, this is a chance to work in a more quality-driven environment where the finish actually matters.

This is not collision repair and it’s not high-volume insurance work.

You’ll be part of a team manufacturing modern classic vehicles where paint quality, surface finish, consistency, and attention to detail are taken seriously. We’re looking for someone who already has solid automotive paint experience and takes pride in producing clean, high-quality work.

What You'll Be Doing

You’ll be part of the team turning rough body surfaces into something clean, straight, and ready for finish:

You’ll be part of the team responsible for bringing these vehicles to life through high-quality paint preparation and application:
Prep, mask, seal, and spray vehicle components and full vehicle surfaces with consistency and care
Mix and apply primers, sealers, basecoats, and clearcoats while maintaining color quality and finish standards
Identify surface imperfections, contamination, texture issues, or defects before they become bigger problems
Work closely with body technicians to ensure panels are truly ready for paint
Cut, buff, polish, and refine finishes when needed to meet quality expectations
Maintain spray equipment, paint materials, and work areas in clean, organized condition
Stay disciplined with safety procedures, PPE usage, and paint booth processes
Take pride in producing finishes that look clean, straight, and professionally executed
Work alongside experienced technicians in a gold standard production environment focused on craftsmanship and quality

You’ll be in a production environment where paint quality, finish consistency, and craftsmanship are expected to matter every day.

Who This Is Perfect For

Automotive paint technicians with around 3-6 years of professional experience
Painters who already know the fundamentals and want to continue sharpening their craft
People who care about clean finishes, proper prep, and doing the job the right way
Technicians who are tired of rushed insurance work and want to work on vehicles they can actually be proud of

What Makes This a Strong Opportunity

You’ll work on full modern classic vehicle builds instead of repetitive insurance jobs
The environment is quality-focused, structured, and built around craftsmanship
You’ll work alongside people who care about fit, finish, and doing things correctly
There’s room to continue growing as a painter while working on vehicles that stand out

Details

Pay: $30-$34/hour depending on experience
Full benefits, including sick leave, accrued vacation, and holiday pay.

Bottom Line

If you already have solid automotive paint experience and want to work in a cleaner, more craftsmanship-driven environment where quality matters, this is a strong next step.

The company is an Equal Opportunity Employer, drug free workplace, and complies with ADA regulations as applicable.

Pay: $30.00 - $34.00 per hour
