RIGHT ON “Q” Thanks to its triple-action formula, Q20 has been a firm favourite amongst firearm enthusiasts, hunters and fishermen for more than 70 years! However, as polymer technology becomes commonplace in the firearm and fishing markets, caution should be taken when using multipurpose oils on plastic components. Fortunately, the folks at Q20 have removed the guesswork from your maintenance routine by formulating two plastic-safe products that are specially engineered for firearms and fishing reels.
Q-GUN As most gun owners know, firearms require surprisingly little lubrication. Meaning, a small quantity of oil needs to lubricate against extreme heat, load, and unimaginable speed. Just as important, corrosion resistance is vital for self-defence firearm owners who carry their pistols everyday. In these instances, your chosen lubricant must have excellent corrosion properties that protect against body sweat and moisture. Finally, the fundamental principle of any firearm maintenance routine boils down to one thing: Cleanliness. A carbon-filled firearm is an unreliable firearm, which is why Q-Gun is formulated to breakdown carbon deposits, without risking damage to plastic components.
Q-FISH It’s the greatest fear of any fisherman: A severed line and a tale about the “One that got away”. Once again, because many multipurpose oils are not plastic safe, you run the risk of damaging your fishing reel (or worse yet, your fishing line!) when the oil comes into prolonged contact with sensitive plastics. Q-FISH is tested to be 100% plastic- and nylon safe. The oil also features excellent corrosionprotection properties against saltwater environments, and acts as a high performance cleaner and moisture repellent, too.

A FIRST FOR SOUTH AFRICA The next generation Plascon Double Velvet Pure drastically improves indoor air quality by incorporating new air purifying technology to reduce harmful formaldehyde.
P
lascon Double Velvet has held the title of ‘South Africa’s preferred indoor paint’ for many years and now. Thanks to innovative engineering, this industry-leading product will offer customers even more benefits.
Plascon has taken things one step further by adding pioneering formaldehyde abatement technology to Plascon Double Velvet Pure – the first on the South African market!
WHAT IS FORMALDEHYDE? Formaldehyde is a Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) that is used as a binding agent in many composite building materials like chipboard, textiles and furniture, as well as several other household products such as cosmetics, detergents and pesticides. These items are most commonly found in home and office settings where people spend 90% of their time. Formaldehyde is released into the air from these household sources and, although it is not the only culprit, it is one of the major contributors to making indoor air five times more polluted than the air outside.
HOW DOES IT WORK? The formaldehyde abatement technology present in Plascon Double Velvet Pure absorbs formaldehyde particles emitted from fabrics, woods, building materials and furniture in the surrounding environment and by reacting with specific compounds present in the paint, irreversibly converts the formaldehyde compound into harmless water vapour that is safe for breathing.
For more information visit www.plascon.com
SAME TRUSTED PRODUCT, ONLY BETTER The reengineered premium product will retain all of its quality, strength and elegance as well as its existing technologies such as the Stain BarrierTM, Silver ProtectTM and BreatheasyTM. Plascon Double Velvet Pure’s unique Stain BarrierTM forms a multilayered protective coating that prevents dirt from penetrating the coating. The BreatheasyTM Technology contains zero VOCs, allowing the product to be virtually odourless and making it ideal for enclosed interior spaces. No emission VOCs mean cleaner, more breathable air.
Plascon Double Velvet Pure is highly stain-resistant as it is reinforced with Silver ProtectTM Technology, offering users a luxurious finish that is easy to maintain. This technology also inhibits mould and bacterial growth. The reinvented Plascon Double Velvet Pure is the obvious choice for anyone who wants to put the wellness of their loved ones first whilst experiencing the premium, luxurious quality for which Plascon Double Velvet has always been known.

SMME’s need to find new ways to work during times of crisis
An emergency or unexpected occurrence can have a negative impact on your business. The Covid-19 pandemic has demonstrated the need for SMME’s to adopt new ways of doing things and has pushed businesses to try and become financially resilient.
S
peaking during a panel discussion during Money Smart Week South Africa 2021, spokespeople from the Association for Savings and
Investment South Africa (ASISA) Foundation defined financial resilience as the ability to cope with income loss, financial setbacks, or unexpected events such as lockdown as a result of the pandemic. It is important for SMME’s to be prepared for financial loss by being cautious about how they spend money when business is going well.
SMME’s can implement the following steps to ensure that they are more financially resilient: • Managing business and personal finances: It is important for SMME’s to remember that as business income grows, it funds and protects the business. It is used to pay for business expenses such as rent. Maintaining and distinguishing business income and personal income (such as groceries) ensures that there is always a clear overview of business growth. • Planning and budgeting: SMME’s need to have a

MIDDELBURG MICA:
WHERE THE SUN RISES
Mpumalanga (“the place where the sun rises” in Zulu) home to coal mines, power stations, stainless steel and soya beans, is also home to power couple Hugo and Hanlie De Wit. Proud owners of Middelburg Mica since 2014. Fresh Start Hugo was at Secunda Mica when the opportunity to reopen Middelburg Mica
came up. Not only was it a new start for them as a family but they also had to revamp and relaunch the store after a 7-month closure. “It was hard at the beginning”, Hanlie recalls as they had to gain back lost clientele, restructure staff and review product listings. By 2017 business became more profitable. Since then the store has undergone many changes. Speciality services such as the arts & crafts department, wood cutting service, and in-store information kiosks ensure they attract a wide client base. Hugo is convinced that their success can largely be attributed to maintaining high stock levels and keeping a wide range of products - which lead to cross selling and more satisfied customers. “You cannot sell what you do not have in your store”, Hugo explains. They were able to capitalise on bulk buying and a second store revamp happened in 2020. The future looked promising.
Store owners Hugo & Hanlie de Wit
Opportunity in Adversity The couple’s determination was tested again in 2020. The national Covid-19 lockdown brought the economy to a halt. During this uncertainty, a devastating hailstorm hit Middelburg. The roof of the store was ripped open, leaving the entire premises under water. When visiting the next day, to evaluate the damage and salvage
stock, customers came begging to purchase much-needed materials to fix their properties. With no electricity and ankle-deep in water, customers were served one by one. Fortunately, permission was granted to all local hardware stores to re-
open and supply essential materials for repair of the widespread damage. This was another turning point in the business and once again Middelburg Mica proved to be of great service to the community. At Service Middelburg Mica is well situated in the main road, leading into town. Soon they will be expanding their builder’s yard in the newly acquired premises across the road.
