<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nFitting then that our latest blog takes a look at this fast-evolving brand and given the circumstances faced in their first full year of operating, it really has been a triumphant debut year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
With a growing product portfolio and customer following, we were keen to take a look at how their first year went and also gain an insight into what we\u2019ve all got to look forward to in 2021! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
SANSOM’S Debut Year Like No Other <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe saying goes \u2018what doesn\u2019t break you, makes you stronger\u2019 and that certainly applies to several new businesses that had to deal with everything 2020 had in stall for them. The perfect point in case, certainly in our industry of \u2018coming out fighting on the other side\u2019, SANSOM are still standing strong. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"SANSOM](\"https:\/\/www.theultimatefinish.co.uk\/car-care-blog\/images\/76609903_154429552601469_6952212022427648000_o-1.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nWe are lucky in some respects that detailing and car care revolves around a service, past time or hobby (whatever it may be to you) that can still be enjoyed even when under a lockdown environment. It allowed plenty of house-bound enthusiasts the opportunity to finally dust off their car maintenance equipment and give their vehicle some much deserved attention. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the biggest advantages for online sellers, is that many consumers also had a whole lot more time to browse the latest brands and invest in those jobs that have been on their \u2018to-do\u2019 list for quite some time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"SANSOM](\"https:\/\/www.theultimatefinish.co.uk\/car-care-blog\/images\/IMG_5082-1.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nSANSOM have certainly benefited from this and we continue to see growing interest in their extensive product range, which comes as no surprise, but the year itself certainly provided a fair few hurdles in order to meet demand and keep products on the shelf. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
When we caught up with the founder of SANSOM, Sam Hogan recently, he confirmed to us just how challenging it had been to maintain a steady production line. In fact, speak to most car care product manufacturers and they will tell you a similar story. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The pandemic has driven demand for domestic cleaning products through the roof and that in turn has made the simple trigger spray we all take for granted on our most loved car care products somewhat of a rare commodity. A major headache for the likes of Sam and his fellow manufacturers, but thankfully in Sam’s case, a solution was sourced and the show could roll on as we prepare for the busiest period of the year on the production line<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SANSOM Keeps It Simple<\/strong> – Pre-Wash, Wash & Protect<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\nStaying true to their word from the outset, SANSOM continue to keep it simple and it\u2019s definitely struck a chord with a broad customer range. There\u2019s a defined balance of the products having enough quality to stand up to the day-to-day rigours a professional detailer may face, but there\u2019s also nothing over-complicated that might scare off your weekend warrior. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"SANSOM](\"https:\/\/www.theultimatefinish.co.uk\/car-care-blog\/images\/B7ACD884-F098-4D01-8148-E89081DDF6BB-1.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nSuch has been the success and popularity of the first bunch of core products offered from SANSOM among the professional detailer network, requests have now been met to offer White Out Snow Foam<\/a>, Reactive Wheel Cleaner<\/a>, Speedy Glass Cleaner<\/a> and Hydra Spray On Rinse Off Protection<\/a> in a trade sized 5L, all of which are now available for pre-order from UF as part of our exclusive SANSOM offering. <\/p>\n\n\n\nSANSOM have also been busy expanding their range of accessories, including applicators, brushes, buckets and wash mitts – all of which we are excited to get our hands on as they’ve been carefully crafted to work in tandem with the rest of the product offering. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, if you are in the trade and are looking to top-up, be sure to consider what SANSOM has to offer. We preview all of the above in a bit more detail in our product feature section below and for those of you who aren\u2019t in the trade and are looking for suitable Christmas gift ideas for someone special (including yourself), check out these 500ML and 1L offerings! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reactive Wheel Cleaner From \u00a39.95<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The sensitivity of the materials that make up a car’s wheel mean it is always paramount during the cleaning process to ensure you’re not going to harm or put surfaces at risk in any way. Throw into the mix the stubborn nature of the iron particles that the brakes on a car shed on to the wheel and that makes the cleaning process all the more challenging without harming the cosmetic appearance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reactive has been specially formulated for use on wheels, the product chemically changes the brake dust stuck on your wheels into a form that’s more easily rinsed away with water. True to SANSOM form, application really is a cinch and the results are great. Simply spray on, allow to dwell (you\u2019ll notice a colour change), agitate with a suitable brush if necessary, then blast off with your pressure washer or hose. It\u2019s a terrific product, offering brilliant value. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

White Out Snow Foam From \u00a39.95<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n‘Tis the season for an extremely filthy car, meaning the importance of snow foaming during your car maintenance session becomes all the more important. White Out Snow Foam is specially formulated to tackle the heavy soiling that typically builds up when driving in the autumn and winter months and offers excellent safeguarding during pre-washing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
As the foam is distributed over your vehicle and left to dwell, it will seep into hard-to-reach areas and also dislodge bigger pieces of dirt that are stubbornly bonded to surfaces. With all those contaminants safely loosened you can then rather satisfyingly blast off with your pressure washer ahead of an easier wash phase. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Squeaky Luxury Shampoo From \u00a39.95<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe world of car shampoo has a lot to offer and with that, there can often be a lot of additional confusion as to what you are actually getting inside the bottle.
