"it" in A,B,C could refer to Paint or the Surface. I think it should be between D & E. Not convinced with D & E though.

D - Wordy...Otherwise it looks right.
E - Not Parallel....To Sand, Apply and then paint?

D looks better.

Hi All,

Need some clarification on this...It appears OA is A. I have my doubts...I think E is correct.

COMMA+VERB-ED modifies immediately preceding noun. I don't think the statement intends to say brain is located behind the ear.

Hi Vivian,
