mc2hill Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 If you're using Adam's polishes & pads on a Dual Action polisher (PC), probably not. If you're using a rotary and/or wetsanding, you may want to consider one to see what you are starting with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnight1700 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 If you are doing detailing on vehicles other than your own, the answer would be YES! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gone & Forgotten Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 This one http://www.amazon.com/Automotive-Paint-Thickness-Meter-Dealers/dp/B001CKZK0W is shown in this video and seems the better of the moderately priced models. This one : http://www.eastwood.com/pro-gauge-ii-powder-and-paint-thickness-gauge.html shown in this video : gives you the impression that you get what you pay for. The 2nd wouldn't work for me - seems magnetic and well... Fiberglass .... yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BespokeCar Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 If you want to wet sand, you need one. If you don't plan on wet sanding then you don't need one. It would be a nice tool to have. If you have a carbon fiber or fiberglass car be prepared to spend a lot on one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
