Metal Polisher Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’ve built a solid track record in metal finishing, tackling tough, high-gloss jobs and keeping finishes consistent under tight shifts. At my last role I handled both shellac and lacquer applications on stainless and aluminium, and I’ve seen finishes improve notably once the prep steps were tightened. I’ve kept projects on time while maintaining quality, and I’m comfortable working across different polishing grits and buffing methods on site. I’m drawn to [Company Name] because you balance precise finishes with practical timing. I bring hands-on experience with surface preparation, corrosion resistance considerations, and quality inspection checks to ensure the final look matches customer specs. I’m comfortable reading finish requirements, choosing appropriate compounds, and managing tools from soft wheels to finer buffs, all while sticking to safety protocols. In a recent shift we finished a run of marine hardware that required a delicate lacquer over a shellac base. I led the prep, applied a controlled shellac layer, and oversaw the lacquer cure. The result was a smooth, even sheen with no streaking, and the team reported a smoother workflow after I helped standardise the wipe-down and dust control steps. That practical improvement kept the line moving and reduced rework. I’m available for a chat about how I can contribute at [Company Name]. If you’d like to discuss a fit or see how I approach finishing tasks, I’m happy to arrange a time. Kind regards, [Your Name]
