So, this one can be more difficult, although I only had to revist 3 levels after I completed the game.
You gain “S” class on the levels by reaching a set number of points. Points are gained by painting things (and repainting buildings), completing challenges, picking up color atoms, getting gold medals and finding the hidden purple and red swirl collectibles throughout the levels. Completion time is NOT a factor.
If you don’t get the “S” class the first time you play a level, you can re-select it from the map screen and try again. Note that doing so resets the entire level (except for lightbulbs and pictures). But there is a method to check if you got the needed rank or not.
When you are ready to finish the level, visit Pinky. When she asks you if you are ready to leave, say no. You'll see the game saving in the bottom right of the screen. Now click on Pinky again and choose yes to leave. If you come up short, DO NOT click on okay. Once you do, it will save and you will have to complete the level all over again. At this point, hit your Xbox Guide button and hit the Y button to head to the dashboard. When you return to the game, you will be able to paint more points to lock in your S class rating without having to start over.
I have the scores of every level needed for the "S" rank. Note the following: The final score isn't the same as the one you have the moment you leave the level. This, because of the bonus points you get for the three gold medals (plants, people and crates). So it's difficult to say how much you need the moment you visit Pinky. I have however gotten these scores:
