SunLight 400 Lumen Rechargeable Color Match Light

I honestly don’t believe there is a better light for paint inspection. Ordered from the US to the UK took a gamble and I couldn’t be happier. Only slight problem is the wall plug is wrong, obviously, but not a big deal.

Very bright. Works well when looking for automotive paint mottling.

So I have used this Astro Branded color match light for about 4 months and on 2 full paint corrections and a few spot corrections. When I purchased it there were only about 5 reviews on Amazon which were good but limited. As of today there are 36 reviews that are mostly glowing and for good reason. This light is actually marketed more for bodyshops to replicate natural sun light and aid in paint matching. I can however attest that it does a great job for spotting paint imperfections most notably swirls, spider trails, acid rain spots, ect. For the price point it works amazingly well especially considering that similar lights cost close to twice as much. What sets this light apart: 2 brightness settings Rechargeable with a base station much like a cordless phone. Features a charge indicator bar. Folding hanger hook. Has a magnetic base on the light. This last feature is very handy as you can place the light on panels with an adjustable head so that you can focus the light to the area you are working on for paint correction or under the hood of a car when doing engine work. Once fully charged I have been able use this off and on for a good 4 hours without running out of charge. If your in the market for a good swirl finder light or even a shop light with the magnetic base and small retractable hanger hook for less than $70 it is hard to beat. It also has a nice weight to it and feels good in the hand. If I had a complaint it would be that the base has little weight so you have to hold the base with one hand while pulling the light out with the other.

This a super light, it is replacing a $1600 3M sun gun and this is so much better and the low price is a great bargain!

This light seemed pretty expensive for a flashlight, but it came highly recommended on Reddit detailing forum, so I took the risk. I have never heard of the brand, but it is definitely A company that takes pride in their work. This thing is solid, heavy, and reveals paint details that I have never noticed in a car that I have owned for five years. It's kind of crazy what a high CRI, or color rendering index, light can do. In addition to having a surprisingly good light, this thing has a magnet on the back which is strong enough to hang it from any position, despite its weight. It can also bend the base so that you can get the ideal position without needing to hold it, as long as you have nearby made of steel or iron. It did pinch my finger when I unbent the base, so be careful where your hands are.
