Features & Benefits

• Ultra-fine finishing polish
• Removes holograms, haze and micro-marring
• Produces high clarity and deep gloss
• Ideal after heavy or medium polishing stages
• Suitable for dark and delicate paint finishes
• Works with finishing foam pads
• Excellent preparation before wax, sealant or coating application

Koch Chemie Micro Cut M3.02 is the finishing stage of the Koch Chemie polishing system. It is designed to refine paint after correction and produce a high-gloss, hologram-free finish.

After compounding or medium polishing, paint can be left with faint haze, DA marring or rotary holograms. M3.02 removes these fine defects and improves clarity, depth and reflection. This is especially important on black, dark metallic and softer paints where minor haze is highly visible.

Use Micro Cut with a soft finishing pad and controlled machine technique. It is also an excellent final step before applying a coating or sealant, as it helps ensure the surface is visually refined before protection is locked in.

Pro Tip

Use a softer towel for removing finishing polish residue. Aggressive towel wiping after final polishing can reintroduce micro-marring on soft paints.
