    Defelsko Paint Meter

    I'm thinking of buying this product and I'm just curious what the shims are used for?

    Re: Defelsko Paint Meter

    They are used to calibrate the paint meter. You get the shims out, place the meter up against it, and measure the thickness. If the meter shows the correct thickness (each shim has its thickness on it), then it is properly calibrated.
