What is a masker?

A masker applies coatings or decorations to a variety of products. People in this job apply paint, lacquer, or other coating material to products such as furniture, toys, glassware, equipment, or jewelry. As a masker, you may paint a monochrome coating or create decorative accents on the product with a machine or use a brush to apply it manually. Many employers provide on-the-job training, though you can increase your employment prospects if you have experience working with paint or lacquer on a variety of different surface types.
