The Koch Chemie One Cut Pad is a medium cut foam pad developed for single-stage correction of paint surfaces with moderate scratches and moderately weathered finishes. The pad works particularly well alongside Koch Chemie polishing compounds to achieve an even and controlled result.
With a height of 23 mm and increased foam density, the pad retains its firmness even during extended use. The reticulated structure contributes to good porosity, which makes cleaning easier and extends the pad's service life.
The bevelled edges give the pad increased flexibility and better conformity to the curves and contours of the bodywork, reducing the risk of uneven polishing at edges and corners.
What is the One Cut Pad and why choose it?
The One Cut Pad from Koch Chemie is a medium cut foam pad constructed to combine scratch removal and surface finishing in a single step – hence the designation single-stage correction. The pad is optimised for use with Koch Chemie One Cut and Finish P6.01, but can also be used with other compound and polish products of similar viscosity and cut profile.
Thanks to the increased foam density and reticulated surface structure, the pad maintains an even temperature and consistency throughout the polishing process, delivering a predictable and repeatable result – important in professional settings where time and quality are highly valued.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can the Koch Chemie One Cut Pad remove deep scratches from paintwork?
The Koch Chemie One Cut Pad is developed for moderate scratches and moderately weathered paint surfaces – not for deep scratches that reach down to the primer or bare metal. For deeper paint damage, a more aggressive compound pad is recommended. The One Cut Pad delivers the best results in single-stage polishing where the aim is to combine scratch removal and surface finishing in a single step.
What are the dimensions and technical specifications of the Koch Chemie One Cut Pad?
The Koch Chemie One Cut Pad has a diameter of 150 mm and a height of 23 mm. The hardness value is 12 and the abrasion resistance is 5. The increased height of 23 mm helps to reduce deforming forces during polishing, providing a stable and controlled working experience. The pad attaches via Velcro and fits standard backing plates for DA polisher and rotary polisher.
What sets the Koch Chemie One Cut Pad apart from other medium cut foam pads?
The Koch Chemie One Cut Pad distinguishes itself through its reticulated foam structure with increased material density, which maintains the pad's firmness and shape even during extended use – something that is not always the case with standard pads in the same category. The bevelled edges improve flexibility when polishing curves and edges. The pad is also colour-coded to match Koch Chemie's polishing compounds, reducing the risk of mixing up pads with different cut grades. See more foam pads for professional use in our range.
