Apply replica tape to blasted surface. Press the adhesive-backed
ends of the paper to hold it firmly in place during the burnishing
process.

Firmly compress replica film using the rounded end
of the included stainless steel burnishing tool.
Apply sufficient pressure in a circular and x-y
rubbing motion to produce a replica with a uniform
pebble grain appearance. It normally takes 30 to 60
seconds to fully compress all parts of the film on
most surfaces. In general, too much compression is
safer than too little. After burnishing is complete,
remove the replica tape from the surface.

Prepare the Gage

With the Gage powered-down, clean the measurement surfaces
using the included cleaning card. Swipe the card through the
opening a few times while firmly pressing both probe buttons to
remove dust particles and residual tape adhesive.

Power-up the Gage by pressing the center navigation
button. An image appears indicating that the probe
requires zeroing.

Simultaneously press and hold both probe buttons firmly until the
Gage beeps and the arrows point outward. Do not place anything
in the measurement opening during this procedure.

Measure the included check shim to verify accuracy (pg. 8).

Ensure the correct grade of replica tape, C or XC, is displayed in
the upper left corner of the LCD (pg. 10).
