A polish uses fine abrasives to take off a thin layer of clear coat and levels scratches down to their base. The cut removes material, the finish brings the gloss back.

Nothing gets filled in. How much comes off isn't down to the polish alone — it's the interplay of polish, pad, machine and speed. That's why every polishing job starts with one question: how much clear coat is actually left?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePolishing removes, it doesn't fill.\u003c\/strong\u003e The clear coat on a modern factory finish is around 40 to 50 µm, and a single cutting pass takes 2 to 5 µm of that, depending on the combo. What that means for you: a car can only take a limited number of full polishes in its lifetime, so save them for the jobs that are worth it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe combo decides, not the label on the bottle.\u003c\/strong\u003e The same polish cuts far harder on a firm foam pad than on a soft one, and gives you a different picture on speed five than on speed two.

A panel wipe — basically a diluted alcohol solution — strips that film off. Rule of thumb: whatever you still see after the wipe-down was there before, too.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote class=\"praxistipp\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetailing1's tip from the shop:\u003c\/strong\u003e What we see day-to-day: the most common beginner mistake isn't the wrong polish, it's starting with the harshest one. We regularly see paint that's been hit with a heavy compound and a hard pad when all it had was light wash marring. Instead, mark out a test spot of about 40 by 40 cm somewhere discreet, say low down on the driver's door, and start with the mildest combo on your shelf. If it does the job, you've saved clear coat. If it doesn't, step up one level — and you'll know exactly why you need it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePolishing removes clear coat, so it stays the exception\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA polish doesn't repair a scratch. It lowers the surface around it until the scratch disappears, because light no longer catches its edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe paint build-up is always the same: metal, primer, base coat with the colour, clear coat on top. You only ever polish the clear coat, and on a factory finish that's around 40 to 50 µm thin — about half the thickness of a sheet of printer paper. Right underneath sits the colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGo too far and you'll see it on the pad before you see it on the paint. A coloured haze on the foam means you're through the clear and that spot only comes back with a respray. That's exactly what makes polishing a different game from washing or sealing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA paint thickness gauge takes the guesswork out. It shows in microns how much paint is sitting on a given spot and reveals differences you'd never guess from the outside. Edges, body lines and wheel arches carry less material to begin with than a flat bonnet, because the paint runs away from these zones when it's sprayed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat gives you a simple rhythm. Wash weekly, seal two or three times a year, polish only when needed and with plenty of time in between. On most cars that's a handful of times over their whole life — each time when the paint genuinely has defects, not just when it looks a bit dull.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnd prep always comes first. Every particle still stuck in the paint turns into a cutter under the pad and drags a fresh trail across the panel. Wash before you polish and check for leftover contamination. Bring in iron remover and clay bar when needed, the clay with a proper lubricant. The full process is under \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/lackvorbereitung\"\u003ePaint preparation\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCut and finish: two steps, two goals\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCut means removal, finish means refinement. Both stages work with abrasives, yet they chase two completely different goals on the same panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe cut is all about material. A coarse, sharp abrasive bites into the clear coat and takes out scratches, holograms and dull oxidation. The \u003ca href=\"\/products\/koch-chemie-heavy-cut-h9-02-grobe-schleifpolitur\"\u003eKoch-Chemie Heavy Cut „H9.02\" Heavy Compound\u003c\/a\u003e is the strongest stage for heavily scratched paint, the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/koch-chemie-fine-cut-f601-schleifpolitur-fein\"\u003eKoch-Chemie Fine Cut „F6.01\" Cutting Polish (Fine)\u003c\/a\u003e the middle option for normal wear and tear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAfter the cut, the paint is clean but not pretty. The coarse pass leaves its own very fine scratch pattern, which shows up in sunlight as a milky haze. That's exactly what the finish takes out: its abrasive is smaller and keeps breaking down as you work, so removal tapers off towards zero by the end. The \u003ca href=\"\/products\/koch-chemie-micro-cut-m2-02-hochglanz-antihologramm-politur\"\u003eKoch-Chemie Micro Cut „M2.02\" High-Gloss Anti-Hologram Polish\u003c\/a\u003e is our go-to answer here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a lot of cars, one pass is enough. One-step polishes combine correction and finish in a single step. How much gloss you get depends on the specific product and the result on your paint. The \u003ca href=\"\/products\/koch-chemie-one-cut-finish-p6-02-hochglanzpolitur-versiegelung\"\u003eKoch-Chemie One Cut \u0026amp; Finish „P6.02\" High-Gloss Polish with Sealant\u003c\/a\u003e is one of our best sellers in this category and lays down a sealant on top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEven gentler is the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/koch-chemie-micro-cut-finish-p3-01-micro-schleifpolitur-carnaubawachs\"\u003eKoch-Chemie Micro Cut \u0026amp; Finish „P3.01\" Micro Cutting Polish with Carnauba Wax\u003c\/a\u003e. It removes hardly any material, but smooths out the grey haze on older paint and leaves carnauba wax behind as a protective layer. For a car that's basically fine and just needs its depth back, that's the more honest route than a cutting compound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you go one step or two is decided on the test spot, not at the shelf. If a one-step combo takes the scratches out of the test spot to your satisfaction, there's no reason to work harder.

It barely cuts at all — its job is to spread sealants and waxes evenly.

The design matters: DA pads are matched to the machine's throw and behave differently from pads for rotary machines. Wool pads cut harder than any foam and belong in experienced hands on hard paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the machine side there are three types. A dual action (DA) spins the pad freely and stops the rotation as soon as you lean on it, which all but rules out burn marks and makes it the safe pick for beginners. Forced rotation locks throw and spin together, so it works faster while staying forgiving. The classic rotary has the most cut and, in the wrong hands, creates exactly the holograms we'll get to later. The range is under \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/poliermaschinen\"\u003ePolishing machines\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo practical details come with that. The pad diameter should be about 15 to 25 mm larger than the backing plate, otherwise the plate edge will eventually hit the paint. And a pad is saturated after about two panels: it stops taking up polish, heats up and starts smearing. Brushing it out or swapping it costs you twenty seconds and saves the result. The full range is under \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/polierpads-schleifschwamme\"\u003ePolishing Pads\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpeed, pressure and arm speed control the cut\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe same polish-and-pad combo gives you a completely different result depending on how you work it. Three things decide that: machine speed, pressure and how fast you move across the panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou work the speed in stages. Spread the polish, then pick the working speed according to the product's instructions. For Koch-Chemie Heavy Cut \"H9.02\", the manufacturer specifies medium speed and medium pressure; how you finish off the pass also depends on the polish you're using.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePressure, too, depends on polish, pad, machine and the manufacturer's instructions. On a DA you can check it directly: draw a line across the pad with a marker. As long as the line visibly rotates, the machine is working. If it stands still, you're pushing too hard and just dragging the pad across the paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eArm speed decides how much time the abrasive gets to work. A section of about 40 by 40 cm has proven itself, worked in four to six slow passes, each overlapping by half, in a cross-hatch pattern — first horizontal, then vertical. Rush it and you're just spreading polish around instead of using it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHeat is the silent troublemaker. The paint can feel hand-warm, never hot, and no polish belongs in direct sun. If the polish dries out under the pad, it stops cutting and starts smearing. A fresh drop is then better than another pass on dry ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEdges, body lines and narrow pillars need special treatment. There's less clear coat there, and the pad only sits on part of its face, which drives up the pressure per square centimetre. Taping off with \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/abklebeband\"\u003eMasking tape\u003c\/a\u003e is the quickest protection; alternatively, finish the edges by hand with a soft applicator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHolograms only show up after the wipe-down\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHolograms are fine, arc-shaped scratch marks that float over the paint like a three-dimensional haze in direct sun or spotlight. In the scene they're also called buffer trails.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThey almost always come from one of three causes: an abrasive that's too coarse with no finishing step afterwards, a rotary running too fast, or a pad that was already loaded and dry. They're most obvious on dark paint; on silver and white you often only spot them once the car is parked outside in the sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe reason they show up so late lies in the polish itself. Besides the abrasive, it contains oils and solvents that soak into the freshly opened paint and visually fill in fine marks. As long as that film is there, you're looking at a better result than you actually achieved. A few washes later the film is gone — and the marks are back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA panel wipe sorts that out. The right inspection cleaner removes polishing oils and residue on suitable surfaces. Koch-Chemie Panel Preparation Spray \"Pps\" is intended for solvent-resistant surfaces; check colourfastness and material compatibility beforehand. In plain terms: after the wipe-down you're looking at the bare clear coat and your real result, instead of kidding yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe process is simple. After a polish without built-in protection, wipe the panel down with a suitable inspection cleaner and a clean microfibre towel, then check it under raking light. If you want to keep the protection from a combo polish, only remove the polish residue as per the manufacturer's instructions. A handheld LED light with a focused beam shows you more than any ceiling light, because it creates a hard reflection that gives away every flaw in the paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you find holograms, the answer is a finishing pass, not another round of cutting. The \u003ca href=\"\/products\/koch-chemie-micro-cut-m2-02-hochglanz-antihologramm-politur\"\u003eKoch-Chemie Micro Cut „M2.02\" High-Gloss Anti-Hologram Polish\u003c\/a\u003e goes on with a matching Micro Cut pad as per the manufacturer's instructions. Only once the panel stays clean after the wipe-down does protection go on — everything for that is under \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/versiegelung-und-pflege\"\u003eSealing and care\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen polishing is the right answer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou polish when the paint has defects you can see and feel. If it just looks dull, it's often the sealant that's due, not the machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe fingernail test gives you a quick first sort. Whether a scratch can be polished out depends on how deep it is and how much paint you have to spare; how it feels under your nail doesn't settle that on its own. And a spot that feels smooth doesn't prove a visible scratch can be safely polished out either.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe classic case is swirls — the fine circular wash marks from brush car washes and old sponges that look like a spider's web in the sun. A one-step combo is usually enough for those.

Shake the bottle hard before use so the compound particles spread evenly. Squeeze the bottle gently to feed compound onto the felt applicator, then run it over the whole pane in overlapping, straight passes. Use moderate pressure — you should feel the particles working across the surface. Go over each area two or three times, especially the wiper zones, where oil film and fluoride deposits build up the most. After the treatment, rinse the glass thoroughly with clean water and dry it with a clean microfibre cloth. Important: don't use a glass cleaner after the compound — a lot of glass cleaners leave residue of their own that gets in the way of the coating's grip. The \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/soft99-glaco-de-cleaner-glasreiniger-400ml\"\u003eGlaco De Cleaner\u003c\/a\u003e is the exception here, since it's formulated specifically for the Glaco range and leaves nothing behind that would harm the coating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy the glass prep makes the difference — lifespan and result\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eglass prep with the Compound Roll On\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most underrated factor in glass coating. What we see day-to-day at Detailing1 is that a clean base prep doubles how long any coating lasts. An \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/soft99-ultra-glaco-scheibenversiegelung-70ml\"\u003eUltra Glaco\u003c\/a\u003e on an unprepped pane typically holds four to six months. The same Ultra Glaco on a pane prepped with the Glass Compound easily reaches ten to twelve months. The reason: without prep, grime sits between the glass and the coating and acts as a weak spot — water gets in there and lifts the coating off in patches. With the compound the grip is even right across the surface, and the coating only thins slowly through mechanical wear (wipers, car washes) instead of flaking off in patches. That difference really shows with long-life coatings like Ultra Glaco or \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/soft99-glaco-dx-scheibenversiegelung-110ml\"\u003eGlaco DX\u003c\/a\u003e. With shorter-lived products like \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/soft99-glaco-w-jet-scheibenversiegelung-180ml\"\u003eGlaco W-Jet\u003c\/a\u003e the effect is less dramatic, but still measurable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGlass Compound Roll On vs. Glaco Q — pure cleaner against 2-in-1\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eGlass Compound Roll On and the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/soft99-glaco-q-75ml\"\u003eGlaco Q\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e both contain compound abrasive particles — but with a different focus. The Glass Compound Roll On is a pure, specialised glass cleaner built for maximum cleaning power: two different particle sizes, a high abrasive concentration, no coating component. The Glaco Q is a 2-in-1 product that pairs a milder compound clean with a hydrophobic coating. Day-to-day that means: for a first treatment or heavily soiled glass, the Glass Compound Roll On is the better call, because it cleans deeper and shifts more stubborn grime. The Glaco Q is plenty for lightly soiled glass and top-ups, and it saves you the separate coating step. The pro route: Glass Compound Roll On to clean, then \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/soft99-ultra-glaco-scheibenversiegelung-70ml\"\u003eUltra Glaco\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/soft99-glaco-roll-on-large-scheibenversiegelung-120ml\"\u003eRoll On Large\u003c\/a\u003e as the coating.

It's worth it on new cars too: from the factory, glass often carries invisible residue from protective films, transport and cleaning agents that weaken a coating.

The result is a noticeably higher gloss at the same cut — fewer holograms after the first step, and often a starting point that only needs one follow-up stage.

When you prime a fresh pad, soak it right across the face — only then do the abrasives and the pad actually work together. From the second section on, 3 to 5 pea-sized drops per 40\u0026times;40 cm panel is enough. Flood half the pad again on the second section and you end up with a layer of leftover compound residue that visibly drags the gloss down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCold paint. Soak the pad. Work it to translucent.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Heavy Cut H9.02 only goes on cold, dry, contamination-free paint. Leftover contamination acts like grit and cuts fresh scratches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBefore every polishing round, the paint needs degreasing — best with an IPA cleaner from the prep range, to kill off any wax residue first. For machine choice, the maker sets a clear order: a rotary at medium speed for maximum cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 generation of the Heavy Cut pads now also lets you run them on dual-action polishers (DA polishers) — gloss stays comparable, the cutting time per panel goes up by about 20 percent. On the fresh pad you lay down an even film when you prime, spread it with finger pressure while the machine is off, then start at speed 1 to 2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWorking a crosshatch pattern with moderate pressure, you take a panel of 40 by 40 centimetres until the compound goes translucent. That is the point where the abrasives have fully broken down and the aluminium oxide has hit its finest grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBefore that point the grit still cuts too hard and leaves a rough microsurface; past that point the pad runs dry and throws holograms. Two to three section passes per panel is the standard — on heavier defects, shrink the panel rather than stretch the working time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou wipe the residue off with a clean, edgeless microfibre cloth — don't rub, wipe. Between panels, check the pad for saturation: if it is caked and shiny, loosen it up with a pad-cleaning brush; if it is smeared, swap it instead of fighting on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/d1_koch-chemie-heavy-cut-h9-02-grobe-schleifpolitur_anwendung.jpg?v=1776554761\" alt=\"Detailing1 applying Koch-Chemie Heavy Cut H9.02 with a rotary on clear coat\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;border-radius:4px;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCut rating 9.0 clears P1200. Down to primer it won't.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Koch-Chemie Heavy Cut H9.02 is a correction compound, not a repair. Anything that sits within the thickness of the clear coat — swirls from automatic car washes, buffer trails, sanding marks after wet-sanding down to P1200, water-spot etching, light bird-dropping etching, UV dulling — comes back in one to three passes. Anything that already reaches into the colour coat or primer won't be fixed by any polish on earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA paint thickness gauge is a must for serious work at cut rating 9. Modern OEM clear coats run between 40 and 60 microns, and a single H9.02 pass takes off 1 to 3 microns depending on pad and pressure. Work with no gauge and correct three times, and on jet-black clear coat you'll be down to the colour coat faster than you'd think — and then neither a finishing polish nor a sealant saves you, only a respray.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe honest limits: bitumen, tar and silicone stains don't react chemically with the aluminium oxide — for those you need a tar remover before you polish. Very soft Japanese clear coats (Toyota white, a few Mazda reds) can tip into the hologram phase fast with the lambswool pad, so here you're better off starting straight with the Foam Pad Red.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor fine correction of medium scratches the H9.02 is overkill — that's where the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/koch-chemie-fine-cut-f601-schleifpolitur-fein\"\u003eFine Cut F6.01\u003c\/a\u003e is the right tool.

For the occasional polisher it's overkill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt's aimed at keen home detailers with a rotary or DA polisher, semi-pro reconditioners with a regular fleet workload, and shops prepping used cars for resale. If you refresh your new car once a year, you're a lot better off with a finer polish like the F6.01 or an all-rounder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn cost, the 250 ml bottle is already the standard size for home use: at 2 to 3 millilitres per panel it lasts for around 100 to 125 panels, or roughly three to four full corrections — that works out to a material cost of about 14 to 17 cents per panel, priming the pad included. The 1-litre bottle pays off from the tenth correction job a year, and the 5-litre canister is the bulk size for outfits running flat out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn day-to-day Detailing1 work the H9.02 never stands alone — it's step 1 in a two- to three-stage polishing system. The typical Koch-Chemie workflow: H9.02 on the Heavy Cut Pad Red for the coarse correction, Fine Cut F6.01 on the Fine Cut Foam Pad Yellow to even out the sanding structure, Micro Cut M3.02 to clear the holograms. Skip step 3 and you accept visible micro-sanding marks on dark paint. Over 87 percent of our H9.02 buyers add the F6.01 to the same basket — exactly for this reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBut the biggest lever for a clean result is neither the polish nor the pad — it's the state of the paint before the first drop. Clean prep — clay bar, IPA wipedown, taping off the trim — saves a full polishing pass on average.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe best H9.02 tip from our bench, though, only comes at the end: after polishing, wipe the paint down with IPA again before you seal. The leftover oils from the pad are otherwise enough to cut the lifespan of a ceramic coating by 30 to 40 percent — and you only notice three months later.

With a cut grade of 9.0, it's built for paint that finer compounds like the Fine Cut F6.01 or the Lack-Polish range simply won't cut deep enough on. Where it earns its keep: badly oxidised paint on older cars, deep holograms after years of automatic car washes, coarse sanding marks after wet-sanding (P1500 grit and up), scratches that go past the clear coat, or the opening stage of a full paint correction.

Switch to a softer pad like the Polish \u0026amp; Sealing Foam Pad Grün and the correction steps back while the gloss takes centre stage. That flexibility makes the P2.03 a real all-rounder in the two-stage Koch-Chemie polishing system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProtection built in — no separate step needed.\u003c\/strong\u003e The formula carries caring wax components that seal the treated paint after polishing and shield it from the elements. In a lot of detailing jobs that saves you a separate sealing step — especially handy for quick used-car prep or the day-to-day grind in a detailing workshop.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow the abrasive gloss polish P2.03 works on the paint\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe term \"abrasive gloss polish\" describes a product that marries two properties that look contradictory at first glance: cut and high gloss. What that means in practice is easy to picture with the cut rating of 2.0. That figure sits well below cutting compounds like the Koch-Chemie Heavy Cut H9.02 (cut rating 9.0), but noticeably above a pure finishing polish with no bite at all. The abrasives in the P2.03 are fine enough to mechanically level out hazing, holograms and fine scratches down to a certain depth — yet they remove so little material that delicate paints, clear coats and even scratch-resistant systems can be worked without a second thought. What surprises a lot of people day-to-day: the P2.03 doesn't dry out while you work it, and it spreads happily even at moderate temperatures without the polish flashing off on the surface. The gloss rating of 9.3 is one of the highest finish values in the Koch-Chemie line-up — for a sense of what that means: the Micro Cut M2.02 also hits high gloss, but it's geared purely toward hologram and swirl correction with no protective component. The P2.03 adds the bonus of built-in protection, which makes it the more efficient pick in a lot of detailing workflows. Important for dark paint: on black or deeply pigmented clears, holograms and hazing show up the most — and this is exactly where the P2.03 plays to its strengths, because the high gloss rating brings out the depth and colour saturation of these paints beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUsing the Lack-Polish violett the right way — workflow, pads and machines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore the P2.03 touches the surface, give the car a thorough wash and — depending on the state of the paint — decontaminate it with a clay bar. Fallout, tar residue and brake dust left on the paint would get dragged in during polishing and could cut in deep scratches. Give the P2.03 a good shake before you use it. Never work the paint in direct sun or on hot surfaces — that goes for the P2.03 and any polish, full stop. For the best cut, Koch-Chemie recommends a rotary at medium speed; the cleanest finish with no machine marks comes off a dual-action polisher. In the two-stage Koch-Chemie system the P2.03 is typically the final polishing step: step 1 handles the heavy correction (Heavy Cut H9.02 or Fine Cut F6.01), step 2 the abrasive gloss polish with the P2.03 or, alternatively, the Micro Cut M2.02. If you want to lay down a protective layer afterwards, you can apply the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/koch-chemie-ceramic-allround-c0-02-keramikversiegelung\"\u003eCeramic Allround C0.02 ceramic sealant\u003c\/a\u003e — the protective wax content of the P2.03 won't get in the way as long as you wipe the panel down with IPA first. Once you've worked it out, buff the polish residue to a high gloss with a soft Polish \u0026amp; Sealing Towel — don't lean on it, just finish it off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eResults and where the abrasive gloss polish P2.03 shines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe P2.03 delivers its best results on lightly to moderately weathered paint — which is exactly the state most daily-driven cars are in. The typical jobs: a car that's spent years parked outside with a clear coat gone slightly matt from UV; a used car carrying holograms from car-wash visits; a brand-new car showing its first swirl marks after the first run through winter. In every one of those cases the P2.03 has enough correction depth to bring the surface back to a high gloss without needing an upstream heavy-cut step. The same goes for motorbikes, vans and motorhomes: wherever there's painted bodywork, the P2.03 can go to work — by machine or with a hand applicator for small areas and tight spots. For pro detailers the P2.03 is especially worth a look when no ceramic coating follows the job and the polish's wax film is enough to serve as short-term protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote class=\"praxistipp\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetailing1's tip from the shop:\u003c\/strong\u003e The pad decides the character of the P2.03. What we see day-to-day: for light holograms and refresh jobs we'd reach for the soft \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/koch-chemie-polierpad-micro-cut-soft-foam-pad-violett-2024\"\u003eMicro Cut Soft Foam Pad Violett\u003c\/a\u003e — that maxes out the gloss and goes easy on delicate paint. For visible weathering and heavier hazing, grab the hard \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/koch-chemie-polierpad-micro-cut-hard-foam-pad-violett-2024\"\u003eMicro Cut Hard Foam Pad Violett\u003c\/a\u003e, which lifts the cut of the P2.03 noticeably without you swapping the polish itself. Only ever drop five pea-sized blobs on the pad — the P2.03 goes a long way, and too much polish makes it harder to work out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eP2.03 compared: when to reach for Micro Cut M2.02 or Fine Cut F6.01 instead?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Koch-Chemie line-up has three polishes that look like they do similar jobs at first glance, but in the detail they have clearly different strengths. The \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/koch-chemie-micro-cut-m2-02-hochglanz-antihologramm-politur\"\u003eMicro Cut M2.02\u003c\/a\u003e is the pure anti-hologram and high-gloss polish with no protective content — the right call when a ceramic or polymer coating follows the polish, because no wax residue messes with the bonding surface. If you want to seal straight after polishing, you take the M2.02 and wipe the panel down with IPA. The P2.03, on the other hand, is the better shout when the paint needs to stay looking good for a few weeks or months with no sealant — the built-in wax content protects and shines at the same time. The Fine Cut F6.01 sits a step up in abrasiveness: cut rating 6.0 for medium scratches and oxidation. If you've got deeper defects the P2.03 can't fully correct on its own, you start with the F6.01 and finish with the P2.03 — that's the classic two-stage Koch-Chemie system. If you've already knocked out the correction work before the P2.03 with a hard \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/koch-chemie-polierpad-heavy-cut-foam-pad-rot-2024\"\u003eHeavy Cut Foam Pad Rot\u003c\/a\u003e and a stronger polish, the P2.03 gets you to that perfect finish. The competition — say Menzerna Super Finish SF 3800 or Rupes UNO Protect — also offers gloss polishes with a protective component, though often without the same flexibility from pad choice. Koch-Chemie's colour system makes the pad pairing especially practical: violet pad = P2.03, no risk of mixing them up under time pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Koch-Chemie Lack-Polish violett P2.03 the right choice for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe P2.03 is the perfect pick for ambitious hobby detailers and professional reconditioners after a product that brings correction and high gloss together in a single bottle. If you're working a car with light to moderate weathering and don't necessarily want to lay down a sealant afterwards, the P2.03 is the most efficient finishing step in your workflow. For pros prepping cars day in, day out who want to trim their working time, the built-in protection regularly saves a separate sealing step. If, on the other hand, you run nothing but ceramic coatings and always IPA-wipe after polishing, you're better off with the pure \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/koch-chemie-micro-cut-m2-02-hochglanz-antihologramm-politur\"\u003eMicro Cut M2.02\u003c\/a\u003e — because there's no wax residue in play.

The active blend — C10–C13 n-alkanes, isoalkanes and cycloalkanes with under 2 percent aromatics — chemically breaks apart the molecule chains in bitumen and tar.

Alongside the alkane blend the formula carries a share of 2-butoxyethanol as a coupling agent, which improves how it wets a glass-smooth panel and keeps it working even at cooler ambient temperatures.

That's the bit manufacturers and rivals rarely mention. If you do nothing after the tar comes off, you're left with unprotected paint that takes on fallout and water spots with no barrier. So always plan it in as the first step of a combo job: tar wash → normal wash with a pH-neutral shampoo → reseal with a \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sonax-profiline-speedprotect-spruhversiegelung\"\u003espray sealant\u003c\/a\u003e or wax. For a spot job (the odd tar fleck on the sill) a quick detailer is enough as local protection. For a full exterior job including resealing, set aside about 45 minutes for a mid-size car.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpray it on neat. Short dwell. Steam it off.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe application is kept deliberately simple. Lay Teerwäsche A on the dry, cold surface undiluted — either straight from the 1-litre bottle with the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/koch-chemie-teerwaesche-a-tea-bitumen-teerentferner?variant=54013040492879\"\u003eCanyon spray head CHS-3AN\u003c\/a\u003e or from a sturdy solvent-safe spray bottle. A wet surface dilutes the solvent and cuts the cleaning power right down — when washing, tar wash first, then shampoo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDwell time runs from 30 seconds to 3 minutes — depending on how thick the tar layer is. You can see when it's working: the tar dissolves into brownish-black streaks and runs down vertical surfaces. As soon as that happens, rinse straight off with a strong jet of water or wipe it away with a clean microfibre cloth. A 1000 ml bottle covers roughly 4 to 6 full vehicle sides with moderate tar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn bigger areas, don't let it dry — in direct sun or on hot paint above 25 °C the solvent flashes off too fast and leaves an oily film that only comes off at the next wash. For underbody or wheel-arch work on commercial vehicles, the 10 or 20 litre version is the right call.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThere you apply it over a wide area with a pump sprayer and then steam it off with the pressure washer at around 120 bar. On stubborn, dried-on bitumen spots after a drive through roadworks, a second application does more than a longer dwell on the first pass — the solvent is saturated after about 3 minutes and stops working.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIt breaks down tar. And wax too.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTeerwäsche A attacks any organic coating sitting on the paint. That's how it works — and at the same time it's the one catch for anyone who reaches for it without a plan. Carnauba waxes, synthetic polymer-based sealants and most quick detailers dissolve away on contact with the hydrocarbon blend. That's no fault in the product either, it's chemistry: what breaks down bitumen breaks down wax too, because both are built on similar organic molecule structures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor the real world that means two things. First: every tar wash is followed by a full paint wash with a pH-neutral shampoo to neutralise the solvent residue. Second: the treated spot needs a fresh layer of protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're only dealing with small flecks on the side sill, you can follow up with a spot wax or detailer. If you're cleaning whole panels or the underbody, build the reseal into the workflow as a fixed step. SiO₂-based ceramic coatings usually aren't fully wrecked after a tar-wash treatment, but they lose noticeable hydrophobicity — a topper or detailer brings them back up to level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat Teerwäsche A isn't suited to: unpainted soft plastics, rubber seals and EPDM profiles. The solvent swells rubber over longer contact and can dull plastics. It mainly hits window seals, door rubbers and black plastic trim on older vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDon't spray it over those surfaces broadly — if overspray happens, rinse it off with water within 60 seconds. On fresh wraps and PPF (paint protection film), test first on a hidden spot. Plenty of PPF coatings handle short contact times under 30 seconds but react sensitively to longer exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen Teerwäsche A fits — and when it doesn't\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTeerwäsche A is the right call when you're removing genuine road tar, bitumen spray after driving through roadworks, asphalt residue on wheel arches or dried-on oil films in the underbody area. It's also built for the regular cleaning of car-wash brushes and shop floors — wherever it's not paint cosmetics that's needed but real chemical solving power. In the spring season after winter it's standard for underbody prep, once tar-salt mixes have piled up over months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor insect residue, though, it's not the first choice. Insect proteins are organic but structured differently — enzymatic cleaners like the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/insektenentferner\"\u003einsect remover\u003c\/a\u003e work more precisely and more gently on paint there. If you've got both at once — tar on the sill, bugs on the front end — treat both areas separately with the product that fits each. Trying to solve everything with one all-rounder usually ends in more rework. Same goes for tree sap and adhesive residue: both dissolve with the tar wash, but a dedicated tree-sap remover works cleaner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs for pack size, the 1-litre bottle suits the private user and the occasional detailer planning one go per vehicle. The 2-pack and 3-pack bring the price per litre down by roughly 5 to 15 percent — worth it if there are several vehicles in the household or you want the season's supply locked in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 10 and 20 litre drums are trade sizes for reconditioning, underbody cleaning or fleet work — here the outlay only pays off from regular weekly use.

Never use Teerwäsche A on heated surfaces or in direct sun — the solvent then flashes off too fast and leaves an oily film. Have gloves (nitrile-resistant) and safety glasses ready. Pick a well-ventilated area; for pro use, make sure of at least three air changes an hour.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIdentify the area.\u003c\/strong\u003e Tar and bitumen spots are typically found on the lower vehicle sections: side sills, wheel arches, bumpers, lower door edges. The affected area has to be dry — a wet surface dilutes the solvent and cuts the effect. If the vehicle was just washed, let it dry first.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpray on.\u003c\/strong\u003e Apply Teerwäsche A undiluted with the Canyon spray head CHS-3AN or a solvent-resistant trade spray bottle onto the affected spot. Spray from about 15 to 20 cm in an even film, without flooding the surface. Work vertically: bottom to top, so the product runs down and wets the whole area.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLet it dwell.\u003c\/strong\u003e Leave it 30 seconds to 3 minutes. You'll see when it's working: tar dissolves into brownish-black streaks running down the surface. Don't let it dry — in warmer conditions above 20 °C go for shorter dwell times and a second application. Beyond 3 minutes, longer dwell brings no extra cleaning power.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRinse or wipe off.\u003c\/strong\u003e Steam the dissolved residue away with the pressure washer at around 120 bar from 30 cm. Or wipe it off with a clean microfibre cloth — after use, bin the cloth or wash it separately, it's saturated with solvent and tar.
