Ager/Grainer

As an Ager/Grainer, you will perform the preparation of surfaces prior to the application of paints and coatings to the interior and exterior of buildings. This includes using painting, coating, and aging and graining techniques to complete work on building and furniture in the field and on special projects, duplicating different wood grains, marble, and other similar appearances.

Applicants must be at least 18 years old and have experience painting and burning surfaces to create the appearance of age, deterioration, and usage. Experience safely using common craft tools such as brushes, rollers, mixers, spray equipment, plaster and patching trowels, sanders, and ladders is required. Knowledge of mixing colors, tinting, toning, and blending to match existing painted/colored surfaces is essential.
