What are the responsibilities and job description for the Paint Technician - Specialty Industry position at Ad Light Group?
Industrial Painter – High-End Custom Finishes
Custom Signage Manufacturing
Location: Denver, CO
Full-Time | Top Pay for Top Talent
Build Work You’re Proud to Put Your Name On
We’re not looking for average painters.
We’re building a team of craftsmen who care about flawless finishes, tight tolerances, and high-visibility work used in premium commercial environments—think retail, trade show exhibits, signage and architectural feature elements.
If you take pride in laying down a glass-smooth finish, dialing in your gun, and hitting color and sheen specs without rework—we want to talk.
What You’ll Actually Be Doing
- Spray high-end finishes on metal, plastics, and composite substrates
- Operate in a professional spray booth environment with proper airflow, filtration, and lighting
- Use HVLP and/or air-assisted systems to achieve consistent, defect-free finishes
- Mix coatings (urethane, acrylic, epoxy systems) with precision
- Execute & guide full prep process: sanding, cleaning, masking, priming
- Inspect your own work—because you care about quality before it leaves your booth
- Identify and correct defects like a pro (runs, orange peel, fisheyes, dry spray, etc.)
- Work alongside a production team that moves fast and expects the same from you
What Separates You From the Pack
- You don’t just “paint”—you control the outcome
- You can adjust fluid, fan, and air pressure without guessing
- You understand how temperature, humidity, and substrate impact finish quality
- You hit consistent color, sheen, and mil thickness
- You minimize rework because you get it right the first time
What You Need to Bring
- 3–5 years in industrial, automotive, aerospace, cabinetry, or similar high-finish environments
- Proven experience spraying in a controlled booth setting (not brush/roller work)
- Strong knowledge of multi-step coating systems
- Ability to read specs and execute without constant supervision
- High standards—this is not a “good enough” shop
Bonus Points If You Have
- Experience with custom fabrication, retail fixtures, signage or exhibit builds
- Color matching or working with custom finishes and specialty coatings
- Exposure to Lean manufacturing or production efficiency standards
Why Top Painters Choose This Role
- Work that gets noticed – not hidden behind walls
- Clean, organized, well-equipped paint environment
- Leadership that understands finishing is a skilled trade—not an afterthought
- Competitive pay that reflects your skill level
- Opportunity to grow as we scale
