Koch-Chemie - One Cut Pad

Koch Chemie One Cut Pad — balanced one-step correction with controlled finishing

Koch Chemie One Cut Pad is a purpose-designed medium-cut foam polishing pad developed to deliver effective defect removal while maintaining a refined, high-quality finish. It is engineered specifically for one-step paint correction, where correction efficiency and finish quality must be achieved in a single polishing stage.

The foam structure offers a carefully balanced density that allows the pad to cut efficiently without excessive heat build-up or aggressive bite. This makes it ideal for use with Koch Chemie One Cut & Finish, but it also pairs well with other medium-cut or one-step polishes when a controlled, predictable result is required.

• Medium cut performance: removes moderate swirls, oxidation and wash marring
• One-step focused: balances correction and finish quality in a single pass
• Optimised foam density: controlled cut with reduced haze risk
• Machine versatile: suitable for dual action and rotary polishers

Foam design & performance characteristics

The One Cut Pad uses an open-cell foam structure that promotes even polish distribution and stable running characteristics. This helps reduce pad hopping on DA machines and minimises the risk of micro-marring compared to more aggressive cutting foams.

The result is a pad that corrects efficiently while finishing down cleanly on a wide range of clear coat systems, making it particularly effective for dealership work, maintenance corrections and time-sensitive detailing jobs.

Recommended applications

• One-step paint correction on daily-driven vehicles
• Moderate defect removal with good finishing quality
• Refinement after heavier compounding where pad aggression needs reducing
• Use with medium-cut or all-in-one polishes

How to use

1. Prime the pad lightly with polish before first use.
2. Apply 2–3 small drops of polish to the pad.
3. Work a test section using moderate pressure and controlled arm speed.
4. Clean the pad regularly during use to maintain consistent performance.

Professional tip: For best one-step results, reduce pressure during the final polishing passes. This allows the foam structure to refine the surface and maximise gloss without additional haze.
