Follow OEM repair procedures and all safety and environmental regulations.
Properly handle and dispose of paint-related materials in accordance with shop and regulatory guidelines.

Knowledge of sanding techniques, masking procedures, primers, and surface preparation.
Strong attention to detail and commitment to producing high-quality work.
Ability to follow repair procedures and work independently with minimal supervision.
Excellent organizational skills and the ability to prioritize multiple tasks.
Ability to work in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.
