Polishing

NexDiag Paint Depth Gauges Now Available At UF

Delve into any professional detailer’s trusty kit bag of essential tools and the chances are you will find a paint depth gauge tucked away in there somewhere. For anyone serious about carrying out the task of machine polishing properly, they are an essential piece in the jigsaw, as we recently covered in our dedicated blog, here

So, if the time has come to replace your old paint depth gauge, or perhaps this is your first foray into these must-have machine polishing accessories, we’re pleased to say that the most recent addition to UF’s trusted range of detailing brands has plenty to offer in this department.  

NexDiag

UF will be the exclusive UK detailing store stockist for two NexDiag Paint Depth Gauges and in this blog, we will be providing an introduction into what they have to offer. 

Leading the Way in Innovation

NexDiag are relatively new on the detailing scene, but in the short space of time they have been active, they have certainly made an extremely positive impact thanks to some of the high-tech forward-thinking innovation offered in their products. 

Using a combination of their extensive knowledge and passion for cars, NexDiag are a company who specialise in the production of innovative and intelligent paint depth readers. Their devices include the introduction of completely new functionalities for these types of tools, while still maintaining the precision of measurement and intuitive operation that the end-user requires. 

NexDiag became the first paint depth gauge manufacturers in the market to create wireless measuring devices which examine the thickness of the lacquer coating of vehicles along with a dedicated mobile application that communicates with the reader via Bluetooth to store measurements and generate reports. 

It’s a simple idea when you think about it, but putting it into practice in a slick way isn’t always such an easy prospect. Having tested the Professional model in the UF Studio at first hand, we can certainly confirm the user experience really is very simple indeed.

Synchronisation between the reader and the app is almost instant and thanks to the use of this  Bluetooth Technology, all measurements are sent directly to which ever mobile device you are using. 

The dedicated NexPTG application can be install on any mobile device equipped with iOS or Android and essentially means you can test paintwork with unprecedented accuracy and precision. 

The advancements in capabilities really begin to shine through on the Professional model, in particular the bespoke reporting capabilities which we can see becoming a feature of many a professional’s detailing package for perspective clients.

NexDiag NexPTG Standard Plus £85.00

NexDiag

The NexPTG Standard Plus is a paint depth gauge which allows you to make measurements quickly and accurately, but with the added advantage of a number of additional innovative options to enhance the user experience, such as the ability to store up to 300 measurements.

Thanks to the use of a movable head and a profiled probe housing in the device, the effect of vibrations on reading measurements on convex or concave internal and external elements of a vehicle has been eliminated.

The Standard Plus also makes it possible to effectively test the thickness of a lacquer coat and the paint depth gauge automatically interprets the obtained results, informing the user about the current state of the substrate.

The device includes the dedicated supporting NexPTG application which can be installed on iOS or Android devices, with the application enabling users to examine surfaces with unprecedented accuracy. Using the Lacquer Coating Analysis System, users can also analyse the surface of the entire body in an instant with the application helping to interpret the results of measurements. All measurements are easily recorded thanks to the application, including the location of where they were taken on the vehicle.

The advanced technology in the Professional model means measurements of an even greater accuracy can be provided compared to the Standard and Advanced versions.

The device also comes with the support of a dedicated NexPTG application which can be installed on iOS or Android devices. The application enables users to examine surfaces with unprecedented accuracy and thanks to the Lacquer Coating Analysis System, it can analyse the surface of the entire body in an instant with the application helping to interpret the results of measurements.
