TIME

This will depend heavily on the conditions you are painting under with regard to atmospheric moisture, temperature, ventilation and sunlight.

But you can roughly work on 2-4 hours for acrylic wall coats and 4-8 hours for enamels.

PAINTING WOOD

GUTTERS

When it comes to the preparation of wood prior to painting, there are a few things to remember.

Raw wood will need a full coat of wood primer, one coat of a universal undercoat, one coat of an enamel of your choice, light sand with 100-150-grit sandpaper upon drying, and a final coat of enamel for best results.

For varnished wood, use sandpaper to remove gloss or shine and to provide a key,

Fascias Editorial credit: ibnu alias / Shutterstock.com

then apply one full coat of a universal undercoat and two coats of your chosen enamel.

The types of enamels you can apply to wood vary in finish (gloss/velvet/satin) and are, of course, water- or solvent-based.

// PAINT CAN LITERALLY BE MIXED IN ANY COLOUR IMAGINABLE. DARKER COLOURS WILL COVER A WALL EASIER, WHILE BLEMISHES AND DIRT WILL BE HIDDEN BETTER WITH THESE //

• Prepare wooden fascia boards as mentioned for wood and paint with enamel

• When it comes to gutters and the colour thereof, the norm is white or the colour of the walls. Also quite popular are downpipes and plumbing against the walls that follow the wall colour as they link with the gutters against the fascia, or that follow the colour of the fascia (most often white) • The type of paint used for gutters again largely depends on the substrate you are dealing with.

THE NEW STANLEY SNAP KNIFE Stanley has revealed a new concept in its snap knife range, the new Stanley Fatmax 18mm Snap Knife.

It is available in a choice of two 18mm models with either a thumbwheel lock or slide lock function. The new Snap Knife features a patented, self-snapping blade mechanism that ensures trade professionals always have a sharp tool ready at hand.

Herbert Nkanyamba (right) receiving his prize from Tshepo Matubatuba at the Centurion Chamberlain branch.

Thanks to its design, there is no need to use a secondary tool to break and remove the blade – the action can be carried out hassle-free using one hand, quickly, easily and safely. Once the blade has been snapped, an integrated magnet catches the discarded portion, safeguarding the user’s hands and permitting secure and convenient disposal.

Ergonomically-engineered to be compact and lightweight, the versatile Snap Knife has been optimised for perfect balance, precision and control. Built for rigorous everyday use, the blade barrel is manufactured to the highest quality standards from hard-wearing stainless steel, delivering exceptional durability and longevity.

Available in two distinct options, the 18mm Integrated Snap Knife features either a thumbwheel lock (FMHT10592-0) or slide lock (FMHT10594-0), both allowing quick and intuitive blade depth setting.

A century of Innovation

This year, Master Lock celebrates a century of durable and high-quality padlock manufacturing. The company is the biggest padlock supplier worldwide, pioneering the broadest range of tested and proven reliable security and safety solutions. Master Lock’s legacy started in 1921 in the United States of America, with Harry Soref. He created the world’s first laminated steel padlock to protect military equipment. Since then, Master Lock has created thousands of trademark products, including the combination lock in 1935 which is still available today, and launching Bluetooth-enabled padlocks in 2015.

Master Lock was founded by Harry Soref.

The first laminated steel padlock was invented and patented.

Escape artist, Harry Houdini, visited Soref after he was unable to escape from a pair of handcuffs. Soref advised Houdini on trick places to hide padlock keys during stage shows.

2021 Soref introduced the laminated cylinder padlock, which awarded The Master Lock Company’s first and only gold medal from the American Association of Master Locksmiths for “An Outstanding Contribution”.

Master Lock moved into its current production facility located at 2600 N. 32nd Street, Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

To celebrate the centenary year, in addition to the numerous advertising and media campaigns planned, your business will be able to be part of the various retail as well as safety and commercial promotional campaigns throughout the year.

Cement is an abrasive fine powder, and when handled, some dust may become suspended in the air in the working area. Users should avoid inhaling cement dust as this may cause irritation of the nose and throat. Cement dust may also cause irritation of the eyes. This will occur because of the chemical reaction of the suspended dust with the moist mucous membranes. Airborne cement dust should be kept to a minimum to avoid these problems. Should this be impractical, then the use of goggles and dust masks is strongly recommended.

Many of the aggregates used in concrete have high silica contents. The fine silica dusts created when crushing or handling these aggregates could cause lung problems, and precautions should be observed to avoid breathing in such dusts.

Dust from demolishing or cutting hardened concrete may contain unhydrated cement and could cause respiratory problems as outlined above.
