Colour Mixer (Automotive Refinish)

This dealership body shop in Bloemfontein needs body repair skills that pass the insurer's quality check. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

This post is Bloemfontein-based, with most of your time spent at a dealership body shop. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

• Mask up vehicles properly to keep overspray off glass and trim
• Pull and straighten chassis damage on a measuring jig
• Apply filler, sand and prime to a smooth, ready surface
• Photograph repair stages for the insurance assessor
• Cut and polish to remove dust marks and orange peel

• Physically able to stand, bend and kneel for long periods
• Good colour vision and a steady hand
• Panel beating or spray painting trade test, or at least 4 years of proven work
• Knowledge of spray booth safety and respirator use

• ADAS camera and sensor recalibration after repairs
• Aluminium and high-strength steel repair training

• Paint supplier training courses
• Clean, modern booth and prep area
• Full respirator and spray suit supplied

• Before-and-after photos are your best proof. Keep them on your phone, ready to show at the interview.
• Say which paint systems you have used, like waterborne base coat with a 2K clear. Body shops care about this.
