FAQ
When should I use a poultice?
Use when you notice heat or swelling. MasterMudd™ EquiBrace helps draw out heat and fluid safely.
When should I use liniment?
When stiffness or post-work recovery is the goal. Apply to backs, large muscles, and legs.
Can I use both?
Yes—poultice the hot spot, and use liniment on surrounding areas. Always rinse poultice fully before reapplication.
Do I need to wrap poultice?
Wrap only if recommended by your vet or barn protocol. Always rinse thoroughly afterward.
Are Draw It Out® liniments show-safe?
Yes. Our Original Gel and Concentrate are sensation-free and designed for show-safe routines.
