Paint Night information

What is a paint night?

A Paint Night is a social event where participants gather, usually at a bar, restaurant, or studio, to create their own paintings while following step-by-step instructions from an artist or instructor. These events are designed for people of all skill levels, making them a fun and relaxed way to try painting, often accompanied by drinks and food. Paint Nights are popular for date nights, group outings, and team-building activities, and all supplies are typically provided.

What can I expect when working as a paint night instructor?

As a Paint Night instructor, you'll frequently collaborate with event coordinators, venue staff, and sometimes assistant instructors to ensure each event runs smoothly. Responsibilities typically include setting up materials, guiding participants through each step of the painting process, and fostering a welcoming, creative atmosphere. Teamwork is essential for managing logistics, handling participant inquiries, and adapting to last-minute changes. Instructors often enjoy a dynamic work environment, with opportunities to build leadership skills and develop engaging teaching techniques.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a paint night instructor?

To thrive as a Paint Night Instructor, you need a strong background in art techniques, instructional ability, and often a degree or experience in fine arts or education. Familiarity with painting materials, digital booking platforms, and presentation tools is typically required. Exceptional communication, patience, and enthusiasm help create a fun and supportive environment for participants of varying skill levels. These skills are essential for delivering engaging sessions that inspire creativity and ensure customer satisfaction.

Both roles share a passion for art but differ in professionalism, environment, and credentials.

We are seeking an experienced Paint Supervisor to oversee a crew of painters and blasters on high-profile marine and waterfront construction projects in Vallejo. This role is responsible for directing daily surface preparation, abrasive blasting, and specialized marine coating applications on commercial and naval vessels.

  • Track crew performance, attendance, and productivity, reporting progress to project management. 
  • Mentor apprentice painters in application techniques, safety protocols, and quality standards. 
  • Coordinate workflow with other trade leads (e.g., sandblasters, riggers, pipefitters) to prevent delays. 
Surface Preparation & Coating Execution
  • Oversee and perform abrasive blasting operations (wet, dry, UHP water jetting) to SSPC/NACE standards. 
  • Verify surface cleanliness, anchor profile, and ambient conditions (temperature, humidity, dew point) before painting. 
  • Oversee and apply marine primers, anti-corrosion systems, antifouling bottom paints, topcoats, tank linings, and non-skid coatings. 
  • Operate, maintain, and troubleshoot airless, conventional, and plural-component spray equipment. 
  • Calculate induction times, pot life, and thinning ratios using Product Data Sheets (MDS/TDS). 
Quality Assurance & Compliance
  • Interpret and enforce customer coating specifications (e.g., NAVSEA, ABS, DNV, commercial owner specs). 
  • Take, log, and document wet film thickness (WFT) and dry film thickness (DFT) measurements. 
  • Inspect finished surfaces for holidays, runs, or sags and direct corrective touch-ups. 
  • Enforce shipyard safety standards, OSHA regulations (29 CFR 1910/1926), and confined space protocols. 
  • Partner with QA inspectors and client representatives during formal coating inspections. 

Candidate Qualifications
Required
  • High School Diploma or GED. 
  • 5+ years of journeyman-level marine or industrial painting and blasting experience. 
  • 1–2+ years in a supervisory, working foreman, or crew lead role. 
  • Hands-on expertise with airless, conventional, and plural-component spray equipment. 
  • Working knowledge of SSPC surface prep standards and NACE coating practices. 
  • Ability to read work orders, MDS/TDS sheets, and technical coating specifications. 
  • OSHA 10-Hour (Maritime or Construction) certification (or ability to obtain within 90 days). 
  • Confined space entry certification (or willingness to obtain prior to start). 
Preferred
  • SSPC C-7 Protective Coating Specialist or NACE Level 1 Coating Inspector certification. 
  • Prior experience with NAVSEA Standard Items and Navy coating specifications (MIL-PRF). 
  • Familiarity with underwater hull coatings and cathodic protection systems. 
Working Conditions & Physical Demands
  • Ability to lift/carry up to 50 lbs unassisted. 
  • Must be comfortable working at heights, in confined spaces, and in variable weather conditions. 
  • Required to wear a full-face air-purifying or supplied-air respirator (fit test required). 
  • Flexibility to work overtime, weekends, or night shifts as production schedules require. 
Benefits: 
  • Health insurance
  • Paid holidays
  • Paid sick leave
