The body shop then preps/masks the entire unit, corrects any imperfections in the fiberglass (as they are all hand laid), sands all surfaces, and primes the unit before scuffing it and passing the vehicle to the paint shop. The paint shop then corrects any last-minute details, seals the unit, applies paint, then clear coat. We are looking for someone to either join our Body Shop in conducting the above stated work or someone to job the Paint Shop spraying the units. For the Paint Shop, automotive style painting and bondo type experience is required. For the Body Shop, applicant must be knowledgeable about body shop tools like DAs, grinders, and spray guns, as well as, completed body work in the past. Applicant must have worked with a fiberglass substrate and be comfortable working with it.
