Training & Mentorship
At Faded Mist, craftsmanship, precision, and product knowledge are at the core of everything we do.
Over the years, we’ve refined our methods to deliver consistently high-end finishes — and we’re proud to be known not just for our work, but for our approach to it. That’s why our systems, standards, and professionally designed workshop have caught the attention of others in the trade.
We’re often asked about training — and it’s something we take as a huge compliment.
While we don’t offer off-the-shelf courses, we do provide private training, demonstrations, and trade mentoring at our Leeds workshop. These are tailored sessions for decorators, sprayers, and kitchen specialists who share our values: attention to detail, care over speed, and a commitment to doing things properly.
We work with carefully selected individuals looking to refine their skills, raise their standards, and learn how to deliver finishes that truly last — including working with specialist coatings such as spray-applied metallics, stone effects, and textured finishes.
Alongside hands-on sessions, we also provide ongoing mentoring for tradespeople who want continued support as they improve their systems, take on more complex work, or develop their workshop practices. Whether it’s follow-up advice, workflow reviews, or troubleshooting techniques, we believe in supporting long-term growth — not just one-off training days.
We also offer advice and insight on optimising spray workshop setups, helping other professionals improve their environments and working methods in line with high-end standards.
Whether it’s a one-to-one session, an informal demonstration, or a more in-depth mentoring arrangement, we keep things small, bespoke, and hands-on.
We believe the best results come from a combination of:
-
High-performance products
-
Tried-and-tested systems
-
A genuine focus on quality over shortcuts
That same level of care is what we bring to every project — whether we’re spraying a single piece of furniture or transforming an entire kitchen.
If you’re a tradesperson looking to sharpen your skills and think our approach sounds like the right fit, we’d love to hear from you.
