Description
Some donations which Tayside Re-users receive are not suitable for restoring to their original condition and these are upcycled into something new instead. For this, Tayside Re-users need a Paint Sprayer. This will involve using our spray booth and spray equipment to upcycle household goods and furniture. This opportunity would suit someone who is considering a trade as a career. Paint spraying experience is preferred but basic training can be given.
