We’re a nationally-recognized sculpture and awards studio looking to partner with a talented auto painter or custom paint specialist to help finish small-format pieces (typically 6”–18”) made from 3D-printed substrates. We’re looking for someone with: -Experience in automotive paint systems (primer, base, clear — urethane/2K preferred). - Strong understanding of surface prep, sanding, and making printed surfaces smooth + flawless. - Ability to match high-end finishes: gloss, satin, matte, metallics, pearls, etc. - Attention to detail and interest in artistic work. - Experience with adhesion and finishing on plastics a plus. What we provide: - Pre-built pieces (3D printed — resin & nylon SLS most common). - Clear finishing direction and references. - Ongoing work opportunity for the right fit. - Flexible pickup/drop-off — we’re easy to work with and communicate well. What we need from you: - Clean, professional finishes. - Ability to handle small batch runs and one-off pieces. - Portfolio / photos of past work (custom auto paint, helmets, bike parts, etc.). - Perfect for someone who enjoys high-detail finishing and wants a creative side gig beyond traditional automotive work. Location: Stockton / Valley / Sacramento region (can coordinate transport of awards for the right person). Compensation: Negotiable based on complexity and turnaround. To apply: Please reply with information about your background and experience (e.g., resume) and photos of previous work/finishes. We’d love to find someone who cares about craftsmanship and enjoys bringing sculptural forms to life in fun and often prolific projects.
