Carrossier

Les carrossières et les carrossiers, aussi appelés peintres de voiture ou débosseleurs, redressent les châssis des véhicules et réparent les éléments endommagés des véhicules (porte, capot, pare-chocs, etc.). Ils remplacent des accessoires mécaniques et électriques et peinturent au pistolet les éléments de carrosserie. Un emploi comme carrossier réclame une personnalité méthodique, méticuleuse et débrouillarde. C’est un métier stimulant qui exige une excellente dextérité manuelle et le souci du travail bien fait.
