They are City & Guilds Level 3 qualified and Red Seal certified, with extensive experience carrying out full preparation, paint and polish work across both prestige and volume vehicles. Their day-to-day responsibilities have included sanding, masking, priming, colour matching, blending and final inspection work within fast-paced accident repair centres where turnaround times and quality standards are critical.
