A material thickness meter is an essential quality assurance tool when anodizing, galvanizing and applying zinc coating to metallic surfaces. A material thickness meter also is used to measure body paint thickness and uniformity on pre-owned cars, revealing repainted spots, identifying hidden damages and exposing undisclosed accidents. This information is important when determining the actual value of a used car. In addition, certain types of thickness meters can measure wall thickness and determine the hardness of metals, plastics and glass.
