Cromax has launched ChromaLamp, the hand-held LED light source that’s an indispensible tool for bodyshops that want to achieve the best possible finish results.

ChromaLamp is designed for use throughout the refinish process, from identifying pre-paint defects like pinholes and sand scratches, to comparing colour samples, checking colour matches and identifying flake coarseness. It can also help refinishers to spot post-repair issues like coverage and hiding.

Thanks to its smart arrangement of LED bulbs, ChromaLamp mimics different light conditions with two settings: one to represent full midday sun and one to simulate light around sunset. These options are important when checking colour accuracy, in particular metamerism. Its three different light intensity settings mean that refinishers can use ChromaLamp to check even the palest silvers that standard daylight lamps might over-light.

Kevin Welling, Training Academy Manager for Axalta Coating Systems says, “ChromaLamp is a must-have bodyshop tool. Its long battery life is a real bonus for busy bodyshops. Thanks to its cordless operation, it’s easy to handle, safer to use and convenient for virtually any work area. And it’s light: with its battery, it weighs less than 500g.”
