Detail-oriented Automotive Paint Technician with extensive experience at Ford Motor Company, excelling in high-quality refinishing processes. Proficient in applying various primers and paints, achieving near-perfect color blending. A collaborative team player, I ensure seamless operations and maintain strong relationships with colleagues to uphold exceptional standards in automotive finishing.
I oversee the entirety of the automotive refinishing process from beginning to end.
I apply variety of primers including urethane, epoxy and UV. I personally handle my own blocking and sanding to meet the highest standards of quality. I finally apply a modern water based paint in our down draft booths with very rarely a need for any paint correction of any kind in which I would also oversee. Most of the jobs i do here are brand new so I perform with the highest quality in mind.
I assisted the painter in all operations of the automotive refinishing process including prepping panels for paint, application and sanding of primers to paint application itself. Under the master technicians supervision i learned all key operations involved in applying a high quality finish using solvent based paints and became proficient in little time.
I was involved in all aspects of automotive paint preparation. My duties included sanding of new parts and preparing adjacent panels for blending. I was also in charge of urethane primer application followed by blocking to ensure a high quality flush finish. Finally I would clean, mask and bag the cars in the booth for the painter to start his process.
