electrical wires.
5. SCANNING DIFFERENT SURFACES
Freshly painted walls: May take one week or longer to
dry after application.
Wallpaper: The StudSensor ™ EDGE functions
normally on walls covered with wallpaper or fabric, unless
the materials are metallic foil, contain metallic fibers, or
are still wet after application.
Lath & plaster: Due to irregularities in plaster thickness,
this tool is not recommended for use on lath & plaster.
The StudSensor ™ EDGE cannot scan for wood studs and
joists through ceramic tile or carpeting and pad.
Note: Sensing depth and accuracy can vary due to
moisture, content of materials, wall texture, and paint.
