What are the responsibilities and job description for the Industrial Equipment Painter and Detailer position at Fabtration, LLC?
Fabtration is currently seeking a painter/detailer to process the industrial equipment manufactured at our location.
This position's duties will include the cleaning of equipment prior to painting, paint mixing, applying paint and primer with our airless paint system, and regularly cleaning out the paint equipment to extend the life of the machine.

As such, the person in this role should bring to attention any areas on projects that may need additional attention and/or rework. Those interested should also be capable of reading a tape measure down to 1/16".
Duties:
- Select the appropriate paint or mix paints according to a pre-determined formula.
