Mirka Gold Sanding Discs

Mirka abrasives has made a number of improvements to its range of multi-purpose Gold discs which tackle a wide variety of substrates and surfaces, including scratch resistant clearcoats and lacquers. Mirka Gold discs now have increased performance and longer lifespan. In internal tests and field tests, the upgraded Gold discs achieved greater stock removal, a faster cut and last significantly longer than the original range. Extra strong aluminium oxide grains in P80-800 provide a cut which stays sharp for a long time, and an improved backing paper gives a more even coating of grains and resin for a better quality finish.

2011 and 2012 make or break years for electric vehicles, experts say

Green Investing reports that 2011 and 2012 are set to be the make or break years for electric cars, experts claim.
The managing editor of nextgreencar.com, Dr Ben Lane, claims that "from a sales point of view" 2010 has not been the greatest for electric cars. He believes that the popularity of these vehicles is set to rise over the next two years, taking a "sizable chunk of the market," and that the introduction of advanced lithium battery technologies will tempt people to sell a car for cash and invest in a more efficient model.
"it's still early days for electrical vehicles, but a number of key elements are all coming into place - partly because manufacturers have been working very hard to produce high quality models. 2011 and 2012 will be make or break years, and the signs at the moment are that it will be make," said Lane.
He claims that potential car buyers are also spurred on by the improvements Britain's air quality will see from the lower emission rates. He believes electric car manufacturers will gear themselves up for a successful 2011, after the Government said they were working with the motor industry to provide environmentally-friendly transport to Brits across the UK, reports Envirotech Online.
The news comes shortly after the Government revealed plans to provide a grant of up to £5000 to car buyers investing in an electric vehicle. It is thought nine cars will be part of this scheme, including the Peugeot iOn and the Mitsubishi's i-MiEV.
