as far as I know. I had a detailer paint correct and coat the car and he used a paint depth gauge and showed me that it all seemed consistent.

He did say the car appeared to be in a body shop at some point because there was over spray of clear coat on the car from being near another car that was painted that he had to buff off on the passenger side (opposite this), but the paint readings looked consistent across the car's panels.
You don't really need a paint depth gauge for this one. Just by looking at the handle, it's evident that it is not original paint.
