I also have 4 years in paint manufacturing as supervisor in the production department. My NOC as chemist is not on the list but NOC 9212 is very much like in my job title.

If the answer to the 3 questions above is yes, then you have the required work experience. You still need to see if you have enough points, but for work experience, you'd be fine.
