Koch Chemie Carnauba Wax

Koch Chemie Carnauba Wax — Hand-Applied Gloss and Beading

Koch Chemie's carnauba paste wax — officially Hand Wax W0.01 — is a premium 175 ml tin built for people who like to lay wax on by hand. The carnauba and sealing components create a smooth, highly hydrophobic surface with a bright, deep high-gloss finish.

A little goes a long way

It's economical by design. You only need a small amount worked into the sponge to cover a panel, and the payoff is strong water beading and a rich, warm gloss on paint and external plastic trim. Like any true wax, it rewards preparation — the cleaner the surface underneath, the better and longer it performs.

How to use it

Prep first with a silicone and wax remover so nothing's trapped under the wax. Press the supplied sponge into the tin, spread a thin, even layer, and work in sections. Let it flash off to a haze, then buff to a gloss with a clean microfibre. Hand-wash from then on to preserve it.
