This course was very easy to follow. It was so convenient because I was able to do it at my own pace in my free time. I have a very busy schedule and did not have time to take a live course.

This is a multiple-choice examination with four choices per question. Examination questions are written to provide only one BEST answer. Some questions require mathematical computation. A calculator will be provided. There is no penalty for guessing. If you are unsure about a particular question, it is better to try to answer the question than to leave the question blank. Plenty of time is provided to answer all examination questions, so be sure to read each question and its four choices completely and carefully before selecting the BEST possible answer to the question.
The Painting and Decorating Manual briefly covers the major topics of the State exam including Tools and Equipment, Spray Painting, Colors, Preparation and Application, Troubleshooting, Wallcovering, and Drywall. The manual also contains summaries of the Uniform Building Code. The Painting and Decorating Manual also contains the Health and Safety Orders and Painting and
Decorating Review Questions.
The Math Review Lecture covers the math formulas in the first part of the Painting and Decorating manual.

Lecture covers the Painting and Decorating Review Questions in the back of the manual.
Please be sure that you study all of the practice exams. It is important to read and understand each question, and read every word of the explanations. It is necessary to learn the principles behind the question because the State’s questions may be worded differently.
