Expert Notes

Koch-Chemie Eulex is a strong solvent-based remover for specific contamination that normal shampoos, APCs and water-based cleaners will not remove properly. It is designed for targeted use on solvent-resistant surfaces where adhesive residue, tar, rubber transfer, tree resin, spray mist, ink, oil or grease need breaking down quickly. The key with Eulex is control. Apply it only where needed, use a dry absorbent cloth, work the residue carefully and clean the area afterwards. It evaporates quickly and leaves no residue when used correctly, but it should not be treated as an all-purpose cleaner. Avoid sensitive plastics completely and always check material compatibility before use.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Solvent-resistant paintwork
  • Solvent-resistant clear coat
  • Automotive glass
  • Workshop hard surfaces
  • Adhesive residue
  • Oil and grease spots
  • Painted panels with testing
  • Metal surfaces

Caution: Always test colour fastness and material compatibility before use. Do not use on hot surfaces. Not suitable for polycarbonate, polyacryl or similar plastics. Avoid sensitive plastics, fresh paint, matte finishes, delicate wraps, PPF edges, rubber seals and unknown surfaces unless compatibility has been confirmed.

How To Use

Targeted adhesive removal

  1. Make sure the surface is cool.
  2. Check compatibility on a hidden area first.
  3. Apply Eulex undiluted to a dry absorbent cloth.
  4. Hold the cloth against the adhesive residue briefly.
  5. Rub the affected area carefully until the residue softens.
  6. Turn the cloth regularly to avoid spreading dissolved residue.
  7. Repeat only if required.
  8. Clean the treated area afterwards.

Tar and resin spot treatment

  1. Wash the area first to remove loose dirt.
  2. Dry the affected panel.
  3. Apply Eulex to a dry absorbent cloth.
  4. Work directly on the tar or resin mark.
  5. Allow the solvent to soften the contamination.
  6. Wipe away the loosened residue.
  7. Use a clean cloth for the final wipe.
  8. Wash or panel-wipe the area before applying protection.

Top Tip: Use Eulex as a spot treatment, not a panel-wide cleaner. Work only on the contamination and keep it away from sensitive plastics and trim.

The Brand

Koch-Chemie

Koch-Chemie began in Germany in 1968 when trained carpenter Hans Koch started developing his own polishing compounds after becoming dissatisfied with the vehicle care products available at the time. His interest in surface finishing became the foundation of the company, with the first Koch-Chemie products moving into serial production during the 1970s. The business has remained based in Unna, Germany since 1971 and has expanded from polishing into vehicle cleaning, preparation, car wash chemistry, workshop products and industrial cleaning.

That history still shows clearly in Koch-Chemie's paint correction range. Heavy Cut, Fine Cut and Micro Cut compounds are designed as defined stages of correction and refinement, supported by corresponding pads and preparation products rather than being treated as isolated bottles of polish.

A Detailing Range Built as a System

A Detailing Range Built as a System

Koch-Chemie approaches vehicle care as a complete chemical and process system. Its detailing catalogue covers pre-cleaners, wheel cleaners, foams, shampoos, fallout and tar removal, polishing compounds, sealants, interior cleaners, glass products and specialist treatments. Familiar products including Green Star, Pol Star, Heavy Cut H9.02, Fine Cut F6.01 and Micro Cut M3.02 each occupy a specific position within that process.

The company's ProductSystem takes this further by dividing its chemistry into ten application groups with individual colour codes. Product abbreviations and technical information are incorporated into the labelling so that users can identify what a product is designed to do and where it belongs within the wider system. This structured approach is one of the most identifiable characteristics of Koch-Chemie.

Developed and Produced in Unna

Developed and Produced in Unna

Koch-Chemie operates its own research and development department at its site in Unna, Germany. Formulations are tested for measurable properties including durability, gloss and hydrophobic behaviour, with development also taking material compatibility, regional conditions and professional working processes into account. The company works directly with the automotive industry, car wash operators and industrial customers when developing and refining its chemistry.

Production is also carried out in Unna, where Koch-Chemie mixes its formulations, fills and labels containers and distributes finished products. Its production operation works within DIN EN ISO 9001 quality management and DIN EN ISO 14001 environmental management systems. This combination of in-house development, manufacturing and a clearly defined product system is a substantial part of what separates Koch-Chemie from brands that primarily source and market third-party formulations.
