Sample Punjab PSEB Sr. Sec. NSQF Construction (Painter & Decorator) Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your Punjab PSEB Sr. Sec. NSQF Construction (Painter & Decorator) exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1Before applying a primer on new masonry, the Construction Painter and Decorator should primarily ensure the surface is:
A.Clean, dry, and sound enough to accept coating
B.Still damp with free water so paint can dilute itself
C.Covered with loose dust to improve tooth
D.Painted first with bitumen regardless of substrate
Explanation: Coatings need a clean, dry, and sound substrate so adhesion develops properly. Free moisture, loose dust, or unrelated bitumen on every wall undermine film performance.
2Loose, flaking old paint on a wall should normally be removed because it:
A.Improves adhesion of every new coat without any preparation
B.Provides a weak, unstable base that can cause the new film to fail
C.Will bond permanently if you only add more water
D.Is required as a textured undercoat for emulsion
Explanation: Flaking paint is an unstable base. New coats applied over it can peel with the old film. Sound preparation removes loose material before coating.
3The main purpose of wall putty or similar fillers before finish painting is to:
A.Replace the need for any primer forever
B.Convert exterior walls into waterproof roofs alone
C.Fill minor surface irregularities so finish coats look even
D.Act as the only structural load-bearing layer
Explanation: Putty/fillers level minor holes, cracks, and roughness so finish coats appear uniform. They do not replace primers in every system or act as structural elements.
4After sanding a filled wall, the painter should typically:
A.Leave all sanding dust in place to act as aggregate
B.Immediately soak the wall with solvent until it glistens
C.Skip any further coats because sanding is the finish
D.Wipe or dust off residues so the next coat contacts a clean surface
Explanation: Sanding dust interferes with adhesion and smoothness. Remove dust before priming or finish coats so coatings bond to the prepared surface.
5Which site-protection step is most appropriate before painting a finished room?
A.Cover floors, fixtures, and adjacent surfaces that must not receive paint
B.Remove all windows so paint can escape outdoors only
C.Turn off all ventilation permanently for the project life
D.Store open solvent cans on every soft furnishing
Explanation: Masking and covering protect floors, fittings, and adjacent finishes from splashes and overspray. The other options create hazards or damage rather than protect assets.
6Fresh cement plaster should usually be allowed to cure/dry adequately before painting mainly because:
A.Paint never sticks to any cement-based surface at any age
B.High alkalinity and moisture in green plaster can attack or disrupt paint films
C.Dry plaster cannot accept any coating system
D.Curing only matters for steel, never plaster
Explanation: Green cementitious surfaces are alkaline and often moist; painting too early can saponify or blister films. Adequate curing/drying improves coating durability.
7Efflorescence (white salt deposits) on masonry before painting is best treated by:
A.Painting immediately over the wet salts to seal them in
B.Adding more water to the wall each day forever
C.Identifying and reducing moisture sources, then cleaning salts before recoating
D.Using only bitumen as the decorative topcoat indoors
Explanation: Efflorescence indicates moisture carrying salts to the surface. Address moisture, remove deposits, then coat on a dry, clean surface. Sealing wet salts in fails.
8When preparing bare steel for painting, mill scale, loose rust, and contaminants should be removed because they:
A.Improve the decorative shine of primers automatically
B.Are required by most architectural topcoats as a bond coat
C.Make solvents unnecessary for all future maintenance
D.Prevent adhesion and allow under-film corrosion to continue
Explanation: Loose rust, scale, and grease block adhesion and trap corrosion under the new film. Sound steel prep is essential before primer.
9Knots on softwood joinery are often sealed before finish coats mainly to:
A.Prevent resinous exudation from staining or disrupting the finish
B.Increase the wood's structural grade automatically
C.Turn softwood into hardwood chemically
D.Eliminate the need for any sanding forever
Explanation: Knotting or appropriate sealers restrain resin bleed that can stain or soften finish films. They do not change timber grade or remove all prep steps.
10Oily or greasy marks on a surface scheduled for painting should be:
A.Ignored because paint will dissolve all oils safely
B.Cleaned with an appropriate degreasing method before coating
C.Covered only with more dust to absorb the oil
D.Burned off with open flame as the first step on every site
Explanation: Oils and greases prevent wetting and adhesion. Degrease/clean with a method suited to the substrate and product system before coating.
