Auto Body Collision Technology

Auto body repair and refinishing technicians work on vehicles damaged as a result of collisions, corrosion, and wear. They estimate damages of all types. They use power and hand tools to repair or replace body parts. Complete painting and spot painting are accomplished by using various types of materials and equipment. Before employment, the industry requires auto body repair and refinishing technicians to have their own tools and, in some cases, power tools.
