Mthatha notes on tools & supplies
Paint shops and hardware stores in central Mthatha and along the main routes to Libode and Ngcobo stock PVA, exterior acrylic, roof paint and metal primers, but some speciality coatings and spray equipment may need to be ordered from East London. Families building in rural areas often buy brushes, rollers, trays and a 20 litre tin at once for a whole house. Ask whether the shop can tint colours on site.
Painting in Mthatha
Mthatha is a hilly town at the centre of a wide rural area, and painting here covers town buildings and homesteads alike. In town there are government offices, schools, clinics, churches and older plastered houses in suburbs such as Northcrest and Southernwood. Outside town, many families build plastered block houses next to traditional round homes with thatch roofs, and these new walls are often painted in bright colours after the plaster has cured. Summer thunderstorms and hill mist keep walls damp for days, so mould and peeling on south facing walls are common. Families building at home, churches, schools, small shop owners and government departments ask for painters, roof paint and supplies most.

Who asks for paint brushes and rollers around Mthatha, most often first:
- Homeowners: a brush set and roller kit to repaint a bedroom or touch up a lounge
- Schools, churches and public buildings: durable rollers and poles for high school halls and church walls
- Builders and developers: bulk roller sleeves and brushes for crews on new walls
