Mark Gatward — Panel & Paint Shop Manager

With over 40 years in the panel and paint trade, Mark Gatward brings a lifetime of experience in automotive refinishing, restoration, and custom paintwork. A fully qualified panel beater, Mark has spent decades perfecting the art of achieving flawless, durable finishes — from daily-driven trucks to one-off showpieces.

His craftsmanship has featured on television projects including three custom builds for the series Import X, and his work has taken home top honours such as Best Scania Truck at the 2025 Bombay Truck Show.

Mark’s passion for precision extends beyond trucks — he has personally overseen the restoration of classic Rolls-Royces and Bentleys, where attention to detail and finish quality are non-negotiable. Every panel, curve and surface is refined to perfection, guided by decades of hands-on knowledge and an eye for excellence.

At Custom Truck Spray, Mark leads the workshop with the same values that built his career: honest craftsmanship, exacting standards, and results that last. Whether it’s a full fleet repaint, accident repair, or high-end custom finish, every job that leaves the shop carries his signature — a finish built to impress and built to endure.
