Automotive reconditioning is the specialized trade of restoring and improving vehicles cosmetically: correcting paint, refreshing interiors, repairing minor damage, and finishing vehicles so they look their best.
It's the work behind the scenes that prepares vehicles for dealerships, fleets, auctions, and everyday owners. A high-demand skill set with room to work, specialize, or build a business of your own.
Automotive reconditioning can support more than one future. The training is designed to prepare you for either direction, or to move between them over time.
Put your skills to work inside an established operation. The Ding King has also partnered with a variety of companies to create employment opportunities post-training and certification.
Use your training as the foundation for a business. Entrepreneurship requires technical ability plus marketing, pricing, customer acquisition, operations, and financial discipline, which is why business education is included alongside technical training.
The traits that made you effective in uniform are the same ones that make a skilled tradesperson. Reconditioning rewards focus, care, and follow-through, strengths you already bring to the table.
We built this training around Veterans because we know what that background is worth, and how directly it translates into a new skilled career.
