Koch-Chemie Tools & Accessories: Buckets, Brushes, Sprayers & Dispensing Equipment
Set up your detail shop or home garage with the right tools for the job. This collection includes Koch-Chemie's professional detailing accessories — buckets, bucket labels, exterior brushes, a pro drying towel, a manual pressure foam sprayer, and the full lineup of dispensing and measuring equipment (dosing caps, dispensing pumps, graduated jugs, taps, and foamer bottles). It's everything you need to apply Koch-Chemie's German-engineered chemicals correctly and get consistent, repeatable results every time.
Koch-Chemie products are concentrates — most dilute anywhere from 1:5 for heavy cleaning to 1:100 for light maintenance — so accurate measuring gear isn't a luxury, it's how the system is designed to work. Whether you're building a two-bucket wash setup, adding foam capability without a pressure washer, or outfitting a shop that runs 5L canisters all day, the accessories here keep dilutions exact, product waste low, and paint safe. Pair them with a wash soap or snow foam and you have a complete wash system.
What Are Koch-Chemie Tools & Accessories?
Koch-Chemie is a German manufacturer of professional vehicle chemicals, and this hardware line exists for one reason: their concentrates only perform as designed when they're mixed, dispensed, and applied precisely. The tools fall into three groups — washing and drying gear (buckets, labels, drying towel, foam sprayer), brushes with bristle stiffness matched to the surface, and dispensing and measuring equipment that turns a 1L bottle or 5L canister into a controlled, mess-free workflow. Shops use the same gear to keep dilutions consistent across multiple detailers; home users get pro-level accuracy without guesswork.

Washing & Drying
- Detailing Bucket — professional-grade bucket built for the two-bucket wash method.
- Bucket Labels (Set of 3) — Wash, Rinse, and Wheels labels that prevent cross-contamination between buckets.
- Pro Drying Towel — large, ultra-absorbent microfiber for safe, scratch-free drying after the rinse.
- Pressure Foam Sprayer 2L — manual pump-up sprayer that applies foam without a pressure washer.
Brushes: Green vs. Red
Koch-Chemie color-codes its exterior brushes by bristle stiffness so you never use the wrong one on paint:
- Exterior Brush Green — soft bristles that are safe for paint, emblems, grilles, and delicate trim.
- Exterior Brush Red — firm bristles for wheels, tires, wheel wells, and engine bays where you need real agitation.
Dispensing & Measuring
- Dosing Cap — precision pour cap that screws onto 1L bottles; squeeze the bottle to fill the 20 ml chamber, marked in 5 ml increments, then pour a controlled dose.
- Foamer Bottle with Scale — manual foaming bottle with measurement markings for mixing and applying foamed product by hand.
- Dispensing Pump 5L — threads into 5L canisters; each full pump delivers approximately 30 ml for count-the-pumps consistency.
- Tap for 5L Can — pour spout for easy, controlled dispensing straight from 5L canisters.
- Graduated Jug 2L — precision measuring jug for mixing accurate dilutions in volume.
- Canister Opener — opens sealed Koch-Chemie canisters without damaging the lids.
Why Proper Tools Matter
- Consistent dilutions — measuring equipment ensures you mix chemicals at the correct ratios every time.
- Less product waste — dispensing pumps and dosing caps prevent over-pouring, so concentrates last as long as they should.
- Safer detailing — dedicated brushes and labeled buckets prevent cross-contamination and wash-induced scratches.
- Professional results — the right tools help you apply products correctly for better, repeatable outcomes.

How to Set Up a Two-Bucket Wash System
The two-bucket method is the safest way to hand-wash without inducing swirls — one bucket carries the soap, the other rinses grit out of your mitt before it ever goes back to the paint:
- Fill two buckets. One detailing bucket gets your wash solution — measure the shampoo with the Dosing Cap or Graduated Jug so the dilution is right — and the other gets clean rinse water.
- Label everything. Apply the bucket labels (Wash, Rinse, Wheels) so nobody dunks a dirty wheel mitt into your paint-safe wash water.
- Pre-foam if you can. Coat the car with a snow foam using the Pressure Foam Sprayer to loosen grit before anything touches the paint.
- Wash one panel at a time. Wash a panel, rinse your mitt in the rinse bucket, reload with soap, and repeat — top of the car down, dirtiest areas last.
- Dry with a patting motion. Use the Pro Drying Towel and pat or lightly glide — never drag a towel across paint that might still hold grit.
Koch-Chemie Tools & Accessories FAQ
What's the best way to dilute Koch-Chemie concentrates?
Measure — don't eyeball. Use the Graduated Jug or Foamer Bottle with Scale to measure the concentrate, then add water. Check each product's label for its ratio — Koch-Chemie dilutions vary from 1:5 for heavy cleaning to 1:100 for light maintenance, and the same product often has different ratios for different jobs.
How does the Koch-Chemie Dosing Cap work?
Screw the Dosing Cap onto any standard 1L Koch-Chemie bottle in place of the original cap, then gently squeeze the bottle to push product up into the 20 ml measuring chamber, which is marked in 5 ml increments. Pour the measured dose straight into your bucket or bottle. Rinse it between products, and note it isn't suitable for acids or solvents.
What's the difference between the green and red exterior brushes?
The green brush has softer bristles — safe for paint, emblems, and delicate trim. The red brush is firmer — better for wheels, tires, wheel wells, and engine bays where you need more agitation. Keep them separated just like your buckets so wheel grime never rides a brush back onto paint.
Can I use the Pressure Foam Sprayer instead of a foam cannon?
Yes. The 2L Pressure Foam Sprayer creates foam through manual pump pressure — no pressure washer required. A pressure-washer foam cannon still makes thicker foam faster, but the pump sprayer is perfect for apartment detailing, interiors, mobile kits, or adding foam capability to any setup.
How do I use the Dispensing Pump on a 5L canister?
Thread the Dispensing Pump into any 5L Koch-Chemie canister. Each full pump delivers approximately 30 ml, so you can count pumps for consistent dilutions every time. Prefer to pour? The Tap for 5L Can gives you a controlled spout instead, and the Canister Opener cracks sealed lids without damage.
Why use bucket labels?
The labels prevent you from accidentally dipping a dirty mitt into clean wash water — the fastest way to put swirls in paint. They're especially useful in shops with multiple detailers or when training new team members on the two-bucket method.
