Having now attended both intro & advanced trim courses I can unequivocally recommend PaintTech Academy courses. Excellent combination of theory backed up with strong hands on learning, taught with passion & belief. Couple that with the ‘after course’ back up & knowledge base I just can’t fault it. I am brimming with confidence despite my total lack of experience & cant wait to get myself fully immersed in the spray application of all things paint.
