    I know I should buy one of these, but with such difference between the models, I'm hesitant to buy the wrong one. Thank you for the video!

    Any suggestions for gauge that measures on fiberglass?

    Thanks for the info; just bought this yesterday from Amazon for $54. As a DIY guy, hard to justify buying one of the high end pro brands for $600+. Just for fun, it would be helpful if you could pickup a used hood or body panel, color sand an area, and then measure the clear coat thickness. Burning through a clear coat is every detailers nightmare.

    I bought the exact same unit off of Amazon. within one year the probe stopped taking any readings. I would never buy another one.

    A year isn’t exactly bad for a $50 gauge, considering some of them cost hundreds and will also inevitably break.

    Calibration is confusing. You should have showed how to calibrate that would be nice

    That’s because the vehicle has PPF on the front end

    This proves how inaccurate it is. It measured 6 mil on the hood you moved it. One inch an it measured twelve mil. There's no way lol

    It’s actually the PPF that caused the jump to 12 mil. It’s a pretty reliable unit!
