Paint-tech’s depth of insight and the way they take you through systems and processes to become efficient and profitable as soon as possible was excellent.
Very hands on not classroom based. Very interactive and Ian has so much knowledge and provided a lot of insight into tools, equipment and the different paints.

Thoroughly enjoyed!

The course was full of content which enabled us to go straight back into the work place and begin to put into practice what we had learned. A good mix of a bit of theory and mainly practical meant we had the knowledge and the understanding giving us confidence to go out and try for ourselves on site.

Excellent learning experience

We had a great time at paint tech. Ian is great at showing how things are done and how to get over any problems that might occur and has lots of great tips he is also very patient and encouraging to the people that are new to spraying. The other bonus for us was it was all funded by CITB.

Complete novice - but much more confident now

I attended the course as I had acquired an airless paint sprayer and realised very quickly there was a lot more to it than just adding paint and pressing the button in the gun. I was naturally nervous when I arrived at the training venue as I knew I would be would be training alongside experienced professional decorators/kitchen sprayers who perhaps needed a faster pace than I could keep up with. I shouldn't have worried though, Pete, (the trainer) was excellent and the other 5 trainees were a fantastic bunch of professionals who had a variable range of sprayer use/experience and collectively made the two days really enjoyable. The course was both practical and informative - with lots of very important information about sprayers, paints, techniques and pricing. I arrived nervous, left full of enthusiasm - I paid for the course myself and feel it was money well spent.

I run a small company, and after this course, i feel confident that i can offer this service to my customers. Pete is very knowledgeable. We covered everything possible, and we never rushed through anything.

Absolutely Amazing, I can't express enough how fantastic doing these courses actually are

If your thinking of doing any courses my advice is to stop thinking about it, just do it.. you won't regret it.. in fact Im confident you will wish you had of known about PaintTech years ago and of done this years ago, I certainly do.
I have now completed three courses, intensive spraying, kitchen and HVLP and all have been incredible.
Ian is a fantastic teacher and not just a fountain of knowledge he's an ocean of knowledge and a great guy also who truly wants you to succeed.
Ive been a decorator for years and thought I knew a lot but Ians vast knowledge and training is mind blowing. Ive leaned things I'd never of ever imagined before doing these course.
Ive spent hours researching and watching youtube videos, ive leant lots by doing so but also questioned loads, tried loads tested lots and then questioned it all again and none of it compares to how much I learnt in such a short time at The PaintTech courses and I will be doing more as its made me realise Ive so much more to learn not only with spraying but all aspects of decorating.
A massive thanks to all at PaintTech as Im now on a new and far better path.

Learning is good

What's to tell
I keep going back for me learning so they must be doing something right.
Under Ian's teaching of years of experience is a good experience.

I successfully finished C&G Intensive Airless Spraying Course in EDENBRIDGE. I would highly recommend the course for beginners and also for people with some practice, but not experience like myself. The course covers everything you need to know for starting professional spraying, including safety, initial set up on the sprayer, cleaning and fault finding, as well as sorting out unpredicted problems during and after spraying.

Big thanks to Ian, who was capable to pass his passion and professionalism to all students at the training

Regards,
Ivo
