Painter
Offers a comprehensive overview of the theory and practice of professional painting.
Beginners learn to paint professionally with this fast-paced topical program. First they'll get a review of pre-technical skills such as working safely with chemicals and how to use hand and power tools. Then they'll move right in to basic painting and plastering courses.
Not simply a series of lessons in brush strokes, these include in-depth training in engineering materials and chemistry to help students develop a better sense of professional painter practices. They'll learn to:
- Discuss physical changes, solutions, acids, bases, and other fundamentals of chemistry.
- Describe the properties and characteristics of different materials to be painted.
- Classify and select the tools and materials required for particular painting tasks.
- Discuss the importance of the proper use of colors and color schemes.
- Identify the various materials used as floor, wall, and ceiling coverings.
