Wet Film Thickness Gauge

Mil Thickness Gauge: Precision Measurement for Paints & Coatings

Product Overview: 

Enhance the precision of your coatings with our Mil Thickness Gauge. Designed for both professional and DIY use, this tool is indispensable for measuring the wet film thickness of paints and coatings on flat surfaces. 

Key Features:

• Broad Measurement Range: Measures from 1 to 80 mils (20 to 2000 microns), accommodating a wide array of industrial and personal projects. 
• Easy to Use: Simply press into the wet coating and read the measurement between the deepest tooth with paint and the next clean tooth. 
• Optimal Coating Performance: Ensures the correct mil thickness for durability and performance, based on your coating's technical data sheet. 
• Efficiency and Precision: Avoids overuse of product, ensuring proper corrosion protection with precise application. 

Instructions for Use: 

1. Consult your coating's technical data sheet to determine the ideal thickness. 
2. Press the gauge into the wet coating. 
3. Remove it vertically and observe the readings. 
4. The true film thickness lies between the deepest tooth coated with paint and the next higher clean tooth.
