310B: a panel has to fit.
Originally published
A body panel can catch your eye because of its colour or shape. For someone exploring collision repair, the way it fits is another useful starting point.
Look at the trade description
Skilled Trades Ontario includes repairing, reshaping and refitting body panels in its description of the 310B trade. Fitting is part of the work, alongside the visible finish.
Ask about the checks
During an arranged, supervised shop visit, ask: ‘How do you decide whether this panel fits correctly?’ Let the host explain the checks and the information used. Follow visitor instructions; do not handle panels or operate equipment.
Turn interest into a question
Jordan’s fictional shop visit offers a starting point for your own questions. Choose one detail to ask about rather than trying a repair. A visit does not register an apprenticeship or establish training credit.
