Always remember that it is a tool that allows you to ESTIMATE how much paint you have to work with

There is one that is made by "all-sun", these are the specs:

This tester is designed to not-destructively measure the thickness of non-magnetic coatings (including
paint, enamel, plastic, epoxy, etc) on iron, steel or aluminum.

• Measuring Range: 0.0mm to 2.0mm, 0mil to 80mil
• Accuracy: 2%rdg ±0.1mm, or 2%rdg ±4mil
• Note: Accuracy is guaranteed at the operating temperature of 23°C±°C and relative humidity of not more than 75%.
• Resolution: 0.1mm/1mil
• Power Supply: 1 x 3V button cell, CR2032 or equivalent (Not included)
• Operating Environment: Temperature: 0-40°C
