(St. Augustine, FL) - Wallace and Sons has entered into a distributor agreement with Ponte Vedra Beach-based Awesome Products Corp. to distribute a cleaning sponge developed by Awesome Products.

Wallace and Sons will market and distribute the 1st Mate sponge to users of its Tuf Enuf® line of cleaning products.

We are so excited to become Awesome Products first distributor," said Main. After we ran the first tests on the companys product, we knew it was going to have a great deal of synergy with our Tuf Enuf® line.

Terms of the agreement were not disclosed. However, Wallace and Sons President Toni Main said the agreement has the potential to bring in $50,000 in the upcoming year.

We are pleased to welcome Wallace and Sons into the Awesome Products family," said Don Meyns, CEO and Founder of Awesome Products Corp. We feel confident that Wallace and Sons will be able to develop a cadre of 1st Mate users given the companys stellar reputation in the marine industry."

Meyns, a self-described tinkerer and inventor, began developing the cleaning pad in his garage in 1995. A year later when his product development and testing had been completed, he formed Awesome Products Corp. He has a patent pending on the sponge.

When I became determined to develop the sponge, I found it was a matter of working with a number of materials until I found one that wasnt abrasive to paint, fiberglass, plexiglass, eisen-glass, etc., but would get the job done with the proper amount of toughness needed," Meyns said.

Meyns used his love of cars - and his desire to keep them clean and shiny - as the driving force to develop the cleaning pad.

In addition to cleaning the exterior of cars, it works wonders on fabric car seats," Meyns said. Itll even take a spot out of carpet using mere soap and water."

Before Wallace and Sons signed on as a distributor, it conducted some independent field-testing of its own. One company it turned to was St. Augustine Boatworks, a boat cleaning and detailing company founded by Margo Geer in 1997.

Id recommend this cleaning pad to anyone," said Geer. It has the right level of strength to get any tough cleaning job done without causing any damage to a boats surface."

Geer and Main conducted comparison tests on similar nationally distributed cleaning pads. Both found the 1st Mate to outlast and clean better than the giant companys pads.

Based in St. Augustine, FL, Wallace and Sons is committed to environmentally-friendly products, such as Tuf Enuf® All-Purpose Cleaner & Degreaser and Orange-scented Tuf Enuf® Natural Bilge Cleaner. Wallace and Sons is also the exclusive Florida distributor for Collinite marine wax products.
