Paint Sprayer

To prepare, mask, and apply aerospace-grade paint and protective coatings to aircraft structural and composite components including doors, wings, radomes, fairings, and associated airframe parts, ensuring compliance with aviation quality, safety, and OEM specifications.

• Prepare aircraft components for painting including cleaning, degreasing, sanding, filling, and surface correction.
• Carry out masking and demasking of complex aircraft assemblies to protect non-painted areas and sensitive systems.
• Mix, prepare, and apply primers, base coats, and topcoats using HVLP, air-assisted, or electrostatic spray equipment.
• Paint structural components such as wings, doors, radomes, and fairings to strict aerospace standards.
• Ensure correct paint thickness, adhesion, finish quality, and colour matching in line with technical drawings and specifications.
• Inspect surfaces before and after painting to identify defects such as runs, orange peel, contamination, or uneven coating.
• Carry out rework, polishing, and touch-ups where required to achieve final quality standards.
• Maintain compliance with aviation safety procedures, FOD control, and environmental regulations (including hazardous materials handling).
• Work closely with engineering, quality control, and maintenance teams to ensure correct interpretation of work instructions.
• Maintain paint shop equipment, tools, and spraying systems in good working condition.

• Experience in industrial or aerospace painting, preferably within MRO or aircraft manufacturing environments.
• Strong understanding of surface preparation and coating systems used in aviation (primers, epoxy, polyurethane, etc.).
• Ability to follow technical drawings, work instructions, and OEM specifications accurately.
• Knowledge of masking techniques for complex assemblies and tight tolerance components.
• Awareness of aviation safety standards, FOD control, and hazardous material handling.
• Good attention to detail and ability to produce high-quality cosmetic and protective finishes.
• Ability to work in controlled environments such as paint booths or hangar facilities.

• Experience working on aircraft structures or composite components.
• Familiarity with aerospace quality systems (e.g., AS9100 environments).
• Knowledge of corrosion prevention and surface treatment processes.
• Spray painting certification or vocational training in coatings/finishing.
