Precision Inspection
See every defect before you commit to correction
A good inspection light changes what you can see on paint. This one combines two calibrated brightness levels with an ergonomic handle, so you can rake light across a panel at any angle and pick up swirl marks, scratches, and coating misses that flat workshop lighting simply will not reveal.
Why This Light
Every feature earns its place
Built around what detailers actually need on the job.
-
Two Brightness Levels
Switch between settings to suit indoor bays, shaded conditions, or bright natural light.
-
Hands-Free Mounting
The magnetic base locks onto any ferrous surface, keeping the light positioned while you work.
-
Impact-Resistant Casing
Rubber outer shell absorbs drops and knocks without affecting the light's performance.
-
Ergonomic Handle
Shaped for comfortable single-hand use across long inspection and correction sessions.
How It Compares
Purpose-built vs a basic torch
Most detailers have tried using a standard torch for paint inspection. Here is where a dedicated inspection light makes a real difference - and where the two overlap.

Built for the Workshop
Rugged enough to keep up with a full day's work
The rubber outer casing handles the knocks that come with a real workshop environment, and the integrated magnetic base means you can mount it hands-free whenever you need both hands on the job. Comfortable to hold for extended sessions, reliable enough to reach for every single car.

Questions
Frequently asked
What are the two brightness levels for?
The lower setting works well for close-up inspection in shaded conditions or indoors, while the higher setting punches through ambient light so you can reveal swirl marks and holograms even in a brighter workshop. Switch between them depending on how much contrast you need against the paint surface.
How do I use the magnetic base?
The integrated magnetic base attaches to any ferrous metal surface on the vehicle or your trolley, holding the light at a fixed angle while you work with both hands. It is particularly useful when applying ceramic coatings or PPF, where you need consistent lighting without holding the torch the whole time.
Is this light suitable for paint correction work?
Yes. A raking inspection light is an essential tool for paint correction. Position it at a low angle along the panel to reveal swirl marks, buffer trails, and scratches that flat overhead lighting hides. Use it before polishing to map defects, and again after to confirm the correction is complete.
Can I use it to check ceramic coating application?
Definitely. Holding it at an angle across a freshly coated panel lets you spot high spots, streaks, or areas where the coating was missed before it cures. Catching these early saves you from having to level hardened coating later.
Is it useful for checking PPF or vinyl installs?
Yes. After laying PPF or vinyl, raking light across the surface reveals air bubbles, lifting edges, and areas where contamination was trapped underneath. The adjustable brightness helps you dial in the right contrast for the film type you are working with.
How does the rubber outer casing help in a workshop environment?
The rubber casing provides a non-slip grip even with product on your hands, and absorbs impact if the light is knocked off a surface or dropped. In a busy workshop, this kind of durability matters more than it sounds.
Is this light handheld only, or can I set it down while working?
Both. You can hold it during inspection or use the magnetic base to mount it on any suitable metal surface at the angle you need. This is useful when doing lengthy correction passes and you want consistent panel lighting without an assistant holding the torch.
Who is this light suited to?
It suits professional detailers who need a reliable, durable inspection light for daily use, and serious enthusiasts doing their own correction or coating work at home. The ergonomic design and two brightness settings make it practical whether you are detailing occasionally or working through a full schedule of cars every week.
