Straight panels are only half the job.
The final finish is what everyone sees.
The color has to match.
The blend has to disappear.
The clear has to lay down right.
And when that vehicle rolls out of the shop...
We’re looking for an experienced Auto Body Painter to join our collision and body repair team in Bow, New Hampshire.
This is a hands-on refinishing position working on everything from everyday vehicles to commercial trucks, trailers, and heavy equipment.
If you take pride in color matching, prep, blending, spraying, and delivering a finish you’d put your name on...
We’re looking for someone who knows the difference between a paint job that’s simply “done”...
If you can prep properly, match difficult colors, blend cleanly, lay down consistent finishes, and produce quality work across different types of vehicles and equipment...
The painter is one of the last people to touch the repair.
That means your work is what the customer sees.
A beautiful body repair can be ruined by bad prep.
A perfect panel can be ruined by a bad color match.
A great repair can be ruined by a rushed finish.
We’re looking for a painter who understands that quality starts before the spray gun ever comes out.
Prepare vehicle and equipment surfaces for refinishing, including sanding, masking, priming, filling, and final prep
Mix and match paint colors accurately using established color-matching systems and formulas
Apply primer, base coat, and clear coat using professional spray equipment
Perform complete painting and refinishing work on:
Cars & Light-Duty Vehicles
Commercial Trucks
️ Trailers
️ Heavy Equipment
Blend panels and adjacent surfaces for a clean, consistent finish
Inspect completed work for color accuracy, coverage, texture, blending, and overall finish quality
Identify imperfections and make corrections when necessary
Operate and maintain paint booths, spray guns, mixing equipment, and refinishing tools
Follow proper flash times, application procedures, and product specifications
Work closely with Body Shop Technicians, Estimators, and Shop Management to keep repairs moving
Maintain accurate records of materials used and time spent on each job
Keep the paint booth, mixing area, and workspaces clean, organized, and safe
Properly store, label, handle, and dispose of paints, solvents, and related materials
Follow all applicable company safety procedures and OSHA/EPA requirements
The final coat can only be as good as the surface underneath it.
That means:
Proper sanding
Clean masking
Correct primer application
Proper filler work
Surface inspection
Contamination control
Correct paint mixing
Careful color matching
Proper gun setup
We want someone who understands the entire refinishing process — not just the last 20 minutes of it.
Paint code?
That’s the starting point.
The vehicle in front of you is what matters.
Age.
Sun exposure.
Previous repairs.
Panel orientation.
Metallics.
Pearls.
Variants.
A skilled painter knows when the formula needs adjustment and how to create a blend that makes the repair disappear.
One of the things that makes this opportunity different is the variety.
You won’t necessarily spend every day spraying the same type of quarter panel or bumper.
Our work can include:
Passenger vehicles
Light-duty trucks
Commercial vehicles
Heavy-duty trucks
️ Trailers
️ Heavy equipment

Different surfaces.
Different repair challenges.

Protective Clothing
Ventilation Systems
Paints & Solvents
️ Hazardous Materials
Proper Storage & Disposal
You’ll be expected to follow applicable company procedures and OSHA and EPA requirements related to paint, solvents, fumes, and hazardous-material handling.

Bending, kneeling, and reaching
Working around vehicles and large equipment
Lifting and moving up to 50 lbs. as needed
Working inside a paint-booth environment
Wearing required respiratory protection for extended periods

Before a completed vehicle leaves the shop, ask yourself:
If the answer is yes...
We want skilled people who take pride in their craft and want somewhere they can continue developing it.
There’s room here to sharpen your skills, take on more challenging work, become a go-to person in the shop, and grow as the operation grows.
Bring the skill.
Bring the eye.
Bring the pride.
