  Identifying Previous Repairs

Unfortunately for us, not every vehicle repair is documented with an accident report and insurance claim, so our inspectors are trained to spot previous and substandard repairs. Substandard repairs, those easily visible to the naked eye, are generally easier to spot due to items such as misaligned panels, overspray, and poor color match. Our inspectors not only catch and document the obvious items, but also take a detective’s approach in seeking hidden previous repairs.

  Tools of the Trade

Our inspectors are equipped with elcometer paint gauges to assist them in the inspection process. Elcometers examine the thickness of paint on metallic surfaces. We test the paint thickness of at least three points (left, center, right) on each exterior body panel to confirm paint conformity. When readings vary on a panel, the inspector moves the elcometer in a circular pattern to determine the size of the anomaly. They may also receive an error reading of “UER” from the elcometer when a non-metallic substance such as bondo or body filler was used to fill in a dent. By identifying prior body work, we are able to inform our customers of any potential issues that may cause concern before making the purchase.

  What does this mean for you?

By equipping our inspectors with elcometer paint gauges, we believe they are better prepared to inspect and document the condition of the vehicle you’re interested in purchasing. Utilizing this simple tool with our own inspection techniques is just another reason you can trust InspectMyRide before you buy!
