Another 650 Jaguar Land Rover painters repainted this month at their Solihull plant.
Employees returned to a moment shift at Lode Lane after 2,000 colleagues returned on May 18.
The luxury car manufacturer has also halved its licensed workers in all fields to fewer than 10,000 workers since March.
In April, BirminghamLive reported exclusively that the company had left part of its UK’s licence (up to 20,000 employees) due to the pandemic.
The JLR plant in Castle Bromwich is also expected to “gradually resume” production with around 350 productions returning to the paintings on 10 August.
This site will be on the JLR F-TYPE and the long-term style pilot structure of XE and XF, is understood.
Its engine production centre remains on a singles shift in Wolverhampton.
A JLR spokeswoman said: “We have reduced our particular license and brought others back. We moved on to a change of moment in Solihull.
“We are less than 10,000 now, before, there were 20,000 licenses.
“This is a positive direction in terms of cutting licenses and improving the numbers.”
Workers in positions, as well as management, acquisitions and marketing, have also returned to painting in more than six weeks.
Positive progression follows devastating news for others after JLR announced it would eliminate 1,100 jobs at the Solihull, Castle Bromwich and Halewood facility.
West Midlands Mayor Andy Street also suggested that the government do everything it can to save the auto industry from the pandemic.
