Mahikeng walls, roofs and weather
Mahikeng is the capital of the North West, and a good share of painting work here comes from government buildings, offices, schools, clinics and the university campus in Mmabatho. Around them are older town houses near the historic centre, 1980s homes and flats in Mmabatho, and growing areas of RDP houses and self built homes in Montshiwa and Lomanyaneng. The climate is hot and dry for much of the year, with strong sun that fades colour and dries paint fast, and summer thunderstorms with some hail. Dust settles on walls and roofs. Government departments, contractors on public tenders, landlords and families extending their homes ask for painters and paint most.

Who asks for spray painting machines around Mahikeng, most often first:
- Schools, churches and public buildings: spraying large school halls and municipal buildings during holidays
- Homeowners: a handheld gun for the garden fence, gate and outdoor furniture
- Builders and developers: airless sprayers for new plaster walls and ceilings across a development
