    Has anyone used one of these?

    When I ordered Carlos' gauges I spoke to the rep about these. I have one to try and man does it work good. It is quick, and repeatable results.

    I see Phil sells these, Phil do they sell OK? I bought a few to sell on eShine, I will have to see if people are wiling to spend $695 on one!

    I am :wicked: man $695 is cheap compared to what I purchased :crasy::crasy:

    Wait did you say you got one? Can I use it? I'd like to test it out too :confused: worth asking :D

    Oh as far as if they are worth it, PosiTector is one of the best paint gauges out there in the market...there is one company superior to PosiTector...mmm..can't recall the name but the cheapest gauge is in the $10,000.00 range now that's :crasy:

    Well your gauges you ordered are better than the DFT but the DFT definately gets the job done. The gauges you ordered have a remote proble instead of built in like the DFT.

    It sure is handy having no probe. I cant believe how fast it reads. I did not play with your gauges so I cant compare them. I ordered three DFT's, really dont know how they will do on the webpage. I figured worse case is I keep one and just need to sell two. LOL

    Wow, there is light at the end of the tunnel. I already have two bites. I may sell these afterall. LOL

    In all honesty, using a rotary or even attempting to wet sand without one of these gauges it taking a huge gamble. One "Oops" and you will wish you spent the $695!

    hmmm...if you get stuck with two of them I'll take one of your hands...I have a friend that would like one...:rollinglaugh:...seriously I do have a friend that wants one....but I have a feeling they will sell fast...call it a hunch :confused:

    Actually FMINUS has one too, I think it's the DFT.

    It is nice when the manufacturer has good info. Copy and paste. I will have my first batch by the weekend and considering they wont be flying off the shelves I figured it would not hurt to get em on the page now. I'll have them in our December flyer.

    Hell ya. You can copy info off webpages so long as you are purchasing from that company. It is marketing that they share with distributors. 99% of the time they will even tell you to copy their info before you have the chance to ask.
