Paint


Recommended Posts

In order to evenly and effectively paint a rough surface, it is necessary to sand it and apply primer before applying the paint.

(A) it and apply primer before applying the paint

(B) it and prime it and paint it

© it, then prime it, then paint it

(D) the surface and apply primer before you

apply paint to the surface

(E) the surface, apply primer to the surface and then paint it

I'd go with E.

 

(A) it and apply primer before applying the paint (to what, the surface or primer?)

(B) it and prime it and paint it (again .. three it s)

© it, then prime it, then paint it (again .. three it s)

(D) the surface and apply primer before you

apply paint to the surface (fairly clear .. but wordy)

(E) the surface, apply primer to the surface and then paint it (I'd assume it refers to the surface)

 

Any other thoughts?

My answer is A.

 

Between A and E, I observe that the farther you place "it" from the referrant, the more the choice is incorrect.

 

(A) it and apply primer before applying the paint - it refers to the surface.

 

(E) the surface, apply primer to the surface and then paint it - surface or primer???
