experienced car sprayer

Are you an experienced Automotive Paint Sprayer looking for a new challenge and the opportunity to work with innovative automotive coating technology?

We are a newly established and ambitious business, launching as the official UK installer and distributor of CARDIP®, an innovative, German-engineered Peelable Paint System that combines the appearance of traditional automotive paint with the benefits of a removable protective coating.

• Positive attitude, strong work ethic and willingness to learn new techniques.
• Full UK driving licence.

Desirable experience:

• Prestige, luxury or performance vehicles.
• Full vehicle colour changes or custom paint finishes.
• Paint Protection Film (PPF) or vehicle wrapping.

• Dedicated on-site Technical Manager providing ongoing guidance and support.
• The opportunity to work with innovative German coating technology.
