He grew up in the outskirts of Park City Utah, he spent his spare time building, repairing, and driving trucks, snowmobiles, and ATVs. He has a passion for repairing and customizing anything with wheels. After high school, the auto body and paint industry caught his eye. He started working for Shine Collision as a paint preparer and in one year he was painting. He spent 3 years painting and then decided he wanted to master auto body repair. After 7 years doing auto body work he became manager and led the tech team as well. After four years of managing, Gordon decided it was time to take the leap into the Powder Coating industry. He started Powder Coating small jobs with his entry-level Powder Coating set up in a 20’x20’’ garage till he got an opportunity to lease a 5000sf shop in Midvale UT. He worked nights at Shine Collision Repair and made sales meetings and Powder Coated during the day. It took 6 months before he was able to go full-time working for himself at Full Blown Coatings. Full Blown Coating grew fast and he hired 4 employees in the course of 2 years. In 2017 Full Blown Coatings purchased their first building with a state-of-the-art Powder Coating system.
