<strong>Paint</strong> <strong>Thickness</strong> <strong>Gauge</strong> <strong>Vs</strong> <strong>Coating</strong> <strong>Thickness</strong> <strong>Gauge</strong><br />
A <strong>Paint</strong> <strong>Thickness</strong> <strong>Gauge</strong> (PTG) otherwise known as <strong>Paint</strong> Depth <strong>Gauge</strong> is an electronic device that<br />
measures the distance between the body panel and the sensor i.e. it helps in measuring the<br />
thickness of the paint so that you know the amount of work that is left. The sensor in the paint<br />
thickness gauge is connected with the surface panel to be measured and should be placed<br />
perpendicular to the surface. Then the device will measure the distance between the body panel<br />
and the sensor where the distance is the thickness of the paint. There are different kinds of paint<br />
thickness gauges available in the market. The cheaper models only help in providing rough idea<br />
whereas the expensive models help in knowing the thickness of each layer independently. Thus,<br />
the expensive models give you an idea about how much more you have to work with. This is ideal<br />
when you are polishing an area and you will get to know how much more you have to polish and<br />
also helps in removing the extra clear coat and can be used for checking the coloured coat also.<br />
But when it is actually put in use in real life, this is not that easy as you have to deal with different<br />
thickness. Thus, the need for paint thickness gauge.<br />
A coating thickness gauge is used for the evaluation of the thickness dry paint coating of any<br />
material. It is accurate and provides exact report of dry paint thickness. It uses non-destructive<br />
method of testing and used in different industry. However, this can be used for testing nonmagnet<br />
coatings, insulating layer and of course, the paint should be dried before testing. It is<br />
designed for measuring dry paint coating such as enamel, paint, plating, hot dip galvanizing on<br />
any material. This device is useful when estimating the value of the used car for the buyer and is<br />
also useful in determining the hardness of metals, plastics and glasses. It also reveals any damage<br />
caused under paint coating. This instrument is fast, simple and reliable and the measure is both<br />
shown on the digital screen and also stored for final analysis. This can be used for the evaluation<br />
of thickness of the material with ease but at the same time no damage is caused to the material.<br />
It is also portable.<br />
Now, you would have seen the differences between the paint thickness gauge and the coating<br />
thickness gauge. Contact the reputed supplier today for all your needs.<br />
