The finish is what everyone sees. The process behind it determines whether the result is acceptable.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does aircraft paint management include?
Independent oversight of a private aircraft paint project — facility selection, scheme approval, in-process inspection, and final acceptance on the owner’s behalf.
How long does an aircraft paint project take?
Timeline varies by aircraft size and scheme complexity — a typical paint project runs from several days to a few weeks depending on scope and facility schedule.
What should be inspected before accepting new paint?
Surface preparation, coverage and finish quality, scheme and logo accuracy against the approved design, and any masking or trim defects should be reviewed before acceptance.
Can paint work be combined with other refurbishment projects?
Yes — paint is often scheduled alongside cabin refurbishment or heavy maintenance to reduce aircraft downtime.
Which paint facilities do you work with?
Jet Karma coordinates with the facility selected by the owner, reviewing scope and quality regardless of provider.
