Paint thickness gauge BLOW

The BLOW paint thickness gauge is a useful, small-sized device that allows you to check the thickness of the paint on a car you are viewing or buying. With our device, you can easily check whether the seller has provided reliable data on the paint coating. The device is powered by AAA batteries, making it ideal for field work. The gauge is easy to use.

Accurate and precise measurements

The BLOW paint thickness gauge is suitable for use on both steel and aluminum. Thanks to its modern probe, the device performs very accurate measurements in a wide range of 0-2000um.

Wide range of applications

The paint meter is not only used in the automotive industry, it is also used in metalworking. We also use it in the chemical manufacturing industry, car washes and laboratories. Therefore, our product is ideal for professional and home use. It is easy to use.

Calibration plates included

When you buy our meter, you get a GARTIS in the form of calibration plates that will allow you to calibrate the meter. You don't have to take the meter to a service center, you can calibrate it yourself at home!

Ready to work

The Blow meter is calibrated before shipping and is ready to use!

Safe and non-invasive

Our product does not damage the measured surfaces and is safe for them. The built-in probe examines the paint in a non-invasive way.

How to use the device?

1. Prepare the substrate for testing.
2. Keep the device away from metal objects at least 2 cm and press the power button to turn it on. Note: It is recommended to calibrate the device to zero before starting measurements.
3. The probe is placed vertically and quickly on the measured surface, and the measured value is displayed on the screen, then raise the probe at least 2 cm away from the measured surface to take another measurement.

Note: If the auto power off function is turned on and there is no operation within 3 minutes, the device will turn off automatically.

How to calibrate?

Basic calibration:

Basic calibration should be performed upon first use, after a longer period of non-use or when changing the tested substrate material. In basic calibration there are 7 calibration points and the unit is mm...

Prepare 6 pieces of standard foil whose thickness is 0.04 ~ 0.06mm, 0.09 ~ 0.11mm, 0.22 -0.28mm, 0.45 -0.55mm, 1.90 ~ 1.05mm, 1.90 ~ 2.00mm.
Hold down the UP key" and then ON, after hearing a beep, the LCD will indicate 00mm, the CAL sign will be displayed in the lower right corner of the display, "Release the UP key indicating that the calibration series has been entered.
Lightly press the probe on the uncoated aluminum base, at this time the LCD will display 0.00 and then you will hear a sound.
Put the device aside, the display will show the number 0.05 mm. Perform the second calibration and gently press the probe to the aluminum base, on which the calibration sheet is placed. After setting the value displayed on the display, the next point has been calibrated. Repeat the operation for all film thicknesses.

Zero calibration:

For accurate results, calibrate the device to zero.

Prepare a bare surface for testing.
Hold down the right button while turning on the device until "zero calibration (ZERO)" appears on the screen.
Place the probe vertically on the surface of the bare substrate until the result is displayed "0". Then raise the probe at least 2 cm from the substrate.

Up to 3 probe modes

• In automatic mode (AUTO) the device automatically selects the appropriate substrate.
• In magnetic induction mode (F) the device measures using magnetic induction.
• In Eddy Current (NFE) mode, the device measures using eddy currents. At this point, it is suitable for measuring a non-ferromagnetic metal substrate.

Measurement Statistics

The device has a built-in memory of measurements that can be deleted! Ability to switch displayed statistics such as average, minimum, maximum, number. Up to 3 units of measurement to choose from: micrometers, millimeters and mils.
