Job Description

Spray Technician (Wood Finishing)

Location: Whitehouse, TX
Type: Full-time, on-site
Stone Bridge Personnel

About the Role

Our client in Whitehouse, Texas is looking for a Spray Technician to join their woodworking team. You will prepare and finish wood pieces in a controlled spray booth environment, delivering smooth, consistent, durable finishes that meet project specifications.

Responsibilities

• Clean, sand, and mask wood pieces so they are ready for coating, with no contamination or imperfections showing through
• Measure and mix lacquers, varnishes, stains, and sealers to the correct consistency and color
• Operate airless sprayers, HVLP guns, and spray booth systems to apply coatings evenly, avoiding drips, runs, and uneven thickness
• Apply primer, topcoats, and intermediate layers, adjusting thickness and number of coats to meet quality standards
• Inspect finished pieces for uniformity, smoothness, and durability, and make touch-ups as needed
• Wear proper PPE (gloves, goggles, respirators), control dust and fumes, and follow ventilation and environmental regulations
• Work with woodworkers, carpenters, and other trades to make sure the finishing process meets project specifications

Work Environment

You will work mainly in a ventilated spray booth that controls airborne dust and chemicals. The work is hands-on and precision-focused. Small changes in gun pressure or distance can affect the finish, so consistency matters.

Qualifications

• Experience in wood finishing, spray application, or a similar trade (list required years here)
• Knowledge of wood finishes, coatings, and drying times
• Ability to operate and maintain spray equipment
• Understanding of safety protocols and occupational health standards
• Strong attention to detail and a steady hand
• Ability to pass a respirator fit test and a background check (include only if your client requires them)
