About us
Before joining Carross in late 2019, John spent more than 20 years working with paint — first as a painter, then running his own garage. This dual experience, both on the shop floor and in management, gives him a comprehensive understanding of the challenges of the trade.
Now a member of the technical team, he shares his expertise through tutorials designed to be useful, practical and true to the reality of the workshop.
