  2. Initially, prime the pad with P3.01 by putting an X across the face of the pad and spreading evenly with your finger.
  3. Apply around 2-3 pea-sized blobs of P3.01 to a polishing pad such as the Koch Chemie Polish & Sealing Pad or Koch Chemie Micro Cut Pad.
  4. Work the product into the paint using moderate pressure on an area no bigger than 2ft x 2ft.
  5. Reduce pressure for the final passes to maximise gloss.
  6. Wipe away residue with a clean microfiber towel and inspect the finish.
  7. Repeat the process from step 3 until the whole car is complete. Periodically clean the pad with a Polishing Pad Cleaning Brush.

Our Take

“What we reach for when the goal is refinement rather than heavy correction.”

P3.01 is one of those finishing polishes that quietly does exactly what it promises. When we’re dealing with light defects, haze from previous polishing steps, or just want to maximise gloss before protection, this is a product we’re very comfortable relying on.

Technically, it’s a micro-abrasive polish designed to remove fine swirls, holograms, and light marring while leaving a very clean, high-gloss finish behind. The abrasive system breaks down smoothly and predictably, which makes it easy to control on both softer and harder clear coats. Used with a soft finishing pad on a DA or rotary, it refines paint without feeling grabby or overly sensitive.

What stands out for us is how clean it finishes. Dusting is minimal, wipe-off is straightforward, and the clarity it leaves behind makes a noticeable difference, especially on darker colours. It’s also forgiving enough that you don’t need to chase perfect conditions to get good results.

For us, P3.01 is a go-to final polishing step when we want the paint looking crisp, glossy, and properly finished before sealing or coating. If your aim is refinement rather than correction, this one fits the brief perfectly.

Koch Chemie - P3.01 Micro Cut & Finish – Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? You’re in the right place! Whether you’re a first-time user or a seasoned pro, our Frequently Asked Questions section is designed to be your go-to resource for quick answers, troubleshooting tips, and clever tricks to unlock the full potential of the Koch Chemie - P3.01 Micro Cut & Finish.

Koch Chemie P3.01 Micro Cut & Finish is specifically designed to permanently remove light paint defects including minor swirl marks, light scratches, water spots, and oxidation. The micro-grain abrasive technology works intelligently to refine the surface while removing these imperfections, making it ideal for correcting paint after washing or as a finishing step following heavier compounding work.

Yes, P3.01 is an all-in-one product that combines micro-cutting action with finishing capabilities. This dual-action formula allows you to remove light defects and achieve a high-gloss finish in a single step, reducing the need for multiple polishing stages. This makes it particularly efficient compared to traditional Fine Finishing Polishes that may require separate cutting and finishing products.

P3.01 can be applied by hand or machine, though machine application typically yields superior results. When using a dual action polisher, work the product at moderate speeds until it begins to clear, then reduce speed for final finishing. The low-dust formula makes application cleaner and more controlled, while the easy wipe-off characteristic ensures no oily residues are left behind.

P3.01 stands out with its all-in-one micro-cutting and finishing capability, whereas alternatives like Meguiars #205 - Ultra Finishing Polish or Menzerna Final Finish 3800 (PO85RD) are typically pure finishing products. P3.01's micro-grain abrasive technology and integrated carnauba wax protection offer a unique combination of correction and enhancement in a single step.

Yes, P3.01 contains carnauba wax that provides temporary protection and enhances gloss after polishing. This built-in protection helps maintain the refined finish and adds depth to the paint's appearance. However, for long-term protection, you may want to follow up with a dedicated wax or sealant after the polishing process is complete.

Koch Chemie's micro-grain abrasive technology in P3.01 works intelligently, breaking down progressively as you polish to provide optimal cutting action initially, then transitioning to fine finishing. This eliminates the guesswork often associated with traditional abrasives and ensures consistent results across different paint types and conditions, reflecting the innovative approach that has made Koch Chemie a trusted name in professional detailing.
