Product details

The COMPETITION coating thickness gauge is a practical and precise testing device for quickly measuring paint and coating thicknesses on various metal surfaces. It is ideal for workshops, vehicle detailers, appraisers, painters, and professional car dealers. Especially when appraising vehicles, the device allows for quick inspection of paint layers and reliably helps identify potential accident damage or repainting. Thanks to its precise measurement technology, coatings on aluminum, iron, and non-ferrous metals can be reliably measured. The coating thickness gauge detects variations in paint thickness, thereby supporting a professional vehicle assessment. Especially in the used car sector, inspecting paint layers is a crucial part of evaluating a vehicle’s condition.
The device is ideally suited for detecting accident damage or subsequent repainting. Variations in paint thickness on individual vehicle parts can be quickly identified, allowing for targeted inspection of bodywork or repaired areas. As a result, the gauge provides valuable support during vehicle purchases, the preparation of expert reports, or quality control.
The compact design and simple one-handed operation ensure comfortable use even during extended use. The ergonomic housing fits comfortably in the hand and allows for quick and easy measurement. Thanks to its intuitive operation, the device is suitable for both professional users and private use.
The easy-to-read LCD display shows the measurement results clearly and concisely. This allows paint thicknesses to be quickly checked and evaluated directly on-site. The compact design also enables easy transport and space-saving storage.
Thanks to its versatile material recognition, the device is suitable for a wide variety of applications. Whether for bodywork inspection, paint inspection, workshop diagnostics, or vehicle evaluation—the COMPETITION coating thickness gauge impresses with its high flexibility and reliable measurement results.
Its immediate readiness for use is particularly practical. The 2 AAA 1.5 V batteries included in the package allow for immediate use without additional accessories. This makes the device ideal for mobile use or daily workshop operations.
Its robust construction ensures a long service life and reliable performance even with frequent use. At the same time, the device stands out for its compact size and modern COMPETITION design with striking color scheme.
The COMPETITION coating thickness gauge is the ideal solution for fast and precise paint and coating measurements on a wide variety of metal surfaces. Perfectly suited for vehicle evaluation, detecting accident damage, and for professional inspection and diagnostic work in workshops and the automotive sector.
