    Solid unit - easy to use and accurate

    Paint thickness gauge is very easy to use and gives high accuracy results, was able to see paint thickness differences from Toyota (-90um) to BMW (-120um) through to Porsche (130um). Also identifies substrate material as steel / galv steel / aluminium plus correctly identified resprayed areas. Gauge actually tells you this also. Great to if buying a new car or just obsessing over taking off too much clear :)

    Only downside at this price point is no plastic substrates / bumpers. But you need to invest $2k and up for that.

    Gamer changer

    It has helped us out so much and it looks great infront of customers too. You would not believe how thin some new car paint jobs are. Saved us some real pain of correcting too far on what seems like new and thick paint
