Electronic Car Paint Thickness Gauge with LCD

Read a car's paint depth in seconds and spot a repaint before you buy.

This handheld gauge measures automotive paint and coating thickness and shows the result on an LCD. The ABS housing is pocket-sized, so it travels between the workshop, the body shop, and a driveway inspection. Rest the sensor flat on a panel and the reading appears right away. It covers a 0-2000 um range with 0.01 mm / 1 mil resolution and accuracy of +/-(3% + 1 um), and it works from -10 degC to 50 degC. It runs on two 1.5V AAA batteries (not included).

Why we picked it

• Clear numbers - Fine resolution and an LCD make readings easy to trust for inspection or refinishing.
• Faster checks - Flag thick or uneven areas quickly to cut down on rework.
• Goes anywhere - Pocket size and one-surface measuring keep setup simple.

Good to know

It is built for coating thickness on car body panels and standard vehicle metal. Use the included calibration sheet before the first reading and whenever accuracy matters, keep the surface clean and dry, and hold the probe still. It needs 2 x 1.5V AAA batteries, which are not in the box.
