Swirl Light Nomenclature

[SRT84JM]

Does anybody remember the nomenclature of the light used in the Detail 101 class to check for swirls?
The garage I'll use has absolutely horrible lighting.

It dends to be called "the swirl finder" in other threads on here... I think it is a Brinkman Dual Xenon.

yep Brinkman Dual Xenon, be careful though, some have a dual light with a Xenon and LED or dual halogen(may work though). I found dual Xenon at Fred Meyer that I'm going to buy next paycheck .

I currently use the sun

Re: Swirl Light Nomenclature

you can also buy a 2 d cell maglite and buy a xenon bulb. thats what I use and it works pretty well. the total cost for the flashlight $16-20 and the light bulb $2-6. You can buy both things at Wal Mart and Ace hardware, sometimes target. Dont forget to buy batteries.

When I purchased my swirlfinder, They had them at a store called "Tuesday morning". It seems that they always carry them. They are priced @$19.99. These are the rechargeable units.

Tuesday morning?! Seriously? There is a store like that near my house but it is more like a home furnishings store...

Thats the one. It was on a pegboard by the small lamps that they have.
