No, because the paint simply sits on the surface of the wood, and there is no change to the molecules in the wood. Therefor, it is a physical change, until its dries then its a chemical change.

When a piece of wood is painted is that a physical change?
That's complicated. The wood is simply covered up, so that's a physical difference. Application of the paint is also physical, you are just putting it somewhere else. What happens as the paint dries depends on the type of paint. Evaporation of the solvent is also physical, but as gloss paint dries chemical changes happen to produce the permanent skin.
Is wood decomposing a physical or chemical change?
The rotting of wood is a chemical change because of many reasons. One of the reasons is because when wood rots, it produces mold, which is a new substance. The definition of chemical change is a change that produces one or more new substances. When the wood rots, you are unable to take the rotted wood and mold and make it back into wood that is yet to be rotted. So because the wood produces one (or more) new substances, the rotting of wood is a chemical change.
