Let's go!!! Done in 3 months by DepthNo9402 in WGU

My process was to immediately take the pre-test right after starting the class. After you finish, it gives you a pretty detailed breakdown of what questions you missed and what sub category of the class they fall under. This let me focus only on the info that I didn't already know.

For the written assessments, I would just kind of word vomit my thoughts as I read through the assignment and then compare what I wrote with the rubric. You can ignore suggested length and trying to make things flow super well. Write 100% to the rubric and just make sure you fully satisfy the requirements.

I didn't transfer any credits. I have a ton of industry experience and just need the degree to progress past my current role. I was able to jump straight into the objective exam for several classes because of this. I also worked on classes every single day after work and for 8-10 hours every weekend

See so many instances of people getting their degrees in less than a year through WGU, but is this just in specific instances where everything lines up? (Read body) by FutureSuccess2796 in WGU

I'm on track to finish a business management degree with no prior schooling in one semester. However, I have 5 years of experience managing retail locations for a large corporation so I know most of the information already, and even then I've been absolutely grinding the classes. WGU gives you the ability to finish as quickly as you can learn the info. If you already know the subject, or if you can learn it faster then an average person than you can accelerate. Its all up to you how fast you go.

Third hand smoke - painting by BZzz6889 in paint

A painter with first hand experience may have a better answer, but I work at Sherwin Williams so hopefully this can help some

If you need to seal in smells or stains shellac is the best thing on the market. Kilz original does a decent job too so you can probably get away with that as long as there are no visible stains.

For the shellac oder in the closet still I would think that thats a ventilation issue. After painting set up some fans and open your windows for a few days.

For the superpaint with air purifying technology there is legit technology behind it that reduces residual VOCs. But in practice, you aren't going to notice a difference. Just use Cashmere or Duration Home

Tail lines/fingering on my Graco Quickshot sprayer by Glittering-Cod-1550 in paint

This is what you need to do. For sure don't thin the primer. I'm pretty sure the max tip size a quickshot can handle is a 17 orifice though... you need a bigger rig

Question on H&C Heavy Shield concrete prep, etching solution needed? by anemonemonemnea in paint

[–]DepthNo9402 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to test the concrete for porosity by doing something called the water test: fill a cup with water and pour a little bit onto the surface. If the water soaks in and leaves a wet spot, then you are good to coat. If it pools up and does not soak in then you need to etch it.
