‌How to use a coating thickness gauge mainly includes the following steps‌:‌

‌Preparation phase‌: First, determine the type and material of the coating to be measured, and check the quality of the coating and whether the surface is clean and tidy. Make sure there is no dust or debris on the surface, otherwise it may affect the measurement results.

‌Power on and calibration‌: Press the "ON/OFF" button to turn on the instrument, use the calibration sheet to adjust the zero, and ensure that the instrument automatically enters the measurement state. If calibration is required, you can choose an appropriate calibration method for calibration.

‌Measurement steps‌: Make the probe of the coating thickness gauge vertically contact the measuring surface of the workpiece, lightly press the loading sleeve of the probe, and when the probe is in stable contact with the surface of the workpiece to be measured, the screen will display the measured value. If the measured value flashes or there is no measurement mark, it means that the probe is unstable and needs to be re-operated.

‌Record results‌: Record the measurement results on the record sheet, including the type of coating, material and thickness information. When processing coating thickness data, it is best to perform statistics and analysis, and draw relevant charts and images to facilitate the observation of the laws and trends of coating thickness changes.
