The correct paint or coating thickness is an important parameter for surface treatment. The strength and durability of the paint surface is based on the correct application of this system, following the specification sheet of the paint manufacturer. Each coat, from the primer to the topcoat and the individual intermediate coats, is precisely defined with minimum and maximum coating thicknesses.
Elcometer devices can be used to check the layer thickness on different surfaces (metal, glass, stone, plastic, wood).

Elcometer 125 Waxed Surface Reference Plates are the reference standard for assessing the profile of a cleaned metal surface prior to painting or protective coating. The comparator allows a visual and tactile comparison of the profile of the wetted surface with four known profile values on the same plate. The Elcometer 125 is available in two versions, Grit (angular profiles produced by blasting with steel wool) and Shot (round profiles produced by blasting with steel balls). All profiles are recorded in microns and comply with international [...]
