Everyday life has a way of delivering small frustrations. A stubborn door hinge creaks every time it moves. A padlock refuses to turn when you’re already late. Garden tools stiffen up thanks to sap and moisture. And that rusted bolt you desperately need to loosen simply won’t budge. On their own, these issues seem minor — but that doesn’t make them any less frustrating and time-consuming.

Most of these problems share the same culprits: friction, moisture, grime and corrosion. Left unchecked, moving parts seize, metal deteriorates, and simple tasks become unnecessary battles.

That’s where Q20 Multi-Purpose Lubricant steps in as South Africa’s favourite all-in-one solution. Designed to clean, protect and lubricate, it works quickly to free seized components, silence irritating squeaks, and displace moisture that causes electrical and mechanical issues. Instead of replacing parts or reaching for a toolbox full of specialised products, one reliable spray often does the job.

Its versatility is what makes it indispensable. Around the home, it keeps hinges, locks, sliding doors, window tracks and garage mechanisms operating smoothly. In the garage or workshop, it loosens rusted nuts and bolts, protects tools from corrosion, and helps maintain bikes, trailers and machinery. Outdoors, it cleans and lubricates garden tools while leaving a protective film that resists rust. It even safeguards sensitive components by driving out moisture after rain or washing.

More than a quick fix, it’s preventative care — reducing wear, extending lifespan, and keeping equipment working the way it should.

For more than 70 years, Q20 has earned its place as South Africa’s most trusted multipurpose lubricant by doing exactly what it promises, again and again:

– Cleans


– Protects


– Lubricates

While many people know Q20 as a household name, the broader Q range includes specialist maintenance solutions for almost any task. The line-up features silicone spray for smooth, non-stick lubrication, powerful rust removers, and dry graphite spray for dust-free performance — along with long-lasting protective film coatings, specialist penetrating oils for stubborn parts, anti-corrosion zinc coatings, lithium grease sprays for heavy-duty lubrication, and more. Whatever the job, there’s a Q product designed to make it easier.
