Questions
Frequently asked
What is the difference between the NexPTG Advanced and the standard NexPTG?
The Advanced is a higher-level model with increased reading accuracy and additional innovative functions not found on the base gauge. It also includes full Bluetooth connectivity to the NexPTG app and access to the Lacquer Coating Analysis System.
Which devices is the NexPTG app compatible with?
The dedicated NexPTG application can be installed on any smart mobile device running Android or iOS software.
What is the Lacquer Coating Analysis System?
It is a feature within the NexPTG app that allows you to map and analyse the lacquer condition across the entire body surface in one session. The app interprets the measurements for you, making it easier to identify resprayed panels, filler and variations in factory paint thickness.
Can I use this gauge without the app?
Yes - the NexPTG Advanced functions as a standalone thickness gauge and provides readings on the device itself. The app adds the analytical layer, but you do not need a smartphone to take basic measurements.
What surfaces can the NexPTG Advanced read?
The gauge is designed to measure lacquer and paint thickness on vehicle body panels. It is primarily used on steel and aluminium substrates where measuring coating depth is relevant for correction, inspection or PPF preparation.
Is this suitable for professional detailing shops or just individual use?
Both. The standalone accuracy makes it a reliable tool for any detailer assessing correction depth, but the app's full-body mapping and result interpretation are particularly useful for detailing businesses that document vehicle condition for clients before and after work.
How do I use the NexPTG Advanced to assess a vehicle before a correction job?
Take readings across every panel - bonnet, roof, doors, boot, bumpers - and let the app build a map of thickness across the body. Thinner panels flag areas where you need to cut conservatively or skip machine correction altogether. Panels showing unusually high readings may indicate respray over filler.
Does the NexPTG Advanced replace a basic entry-level gauge?
It is a step up from entry-level gauges in both accuracy and capability. If you are doing pre-purchase inspections, correction assessments or working in a professional environment where documented results matter, the Advanced is the more appropriate tool.
