For more precise measurement the device is equipped with
pressure stabilization sensor.
The probe has the sensitive part of just 2 mm in diameter.
Therefore, in order to get precise measurement, it’s required to
have only small area of the surface cleaned from dust and dirt.
This will allow you to make measurements of the body panels of
the car without washing the whole vehicle.
Please note that when you’re performing measurement or
calibration on the base metal included in the set, the
measurement must be performed in the center of the base plate.
Car body panel check
You can use the device to find car body parts that undergone
repair and repainting.
At manufacturing facilities of all car makers, each car is painted by
advanced automatic machines, which allows for paint layer
thickness to be quite uniform across the whole body of the car.
Though paint layer thickness may vary from manufacturer to
manufacturer, normally the coating thickness will be from 60 to
250 μms.
On 1 given vehicle, the paint layer thickness variation should not
exceed 20%.
If one or few body parts of a car have a paint thickness
measurement exceeding the average value times 2 that means
