Quick answer: ShowBarn Secret® SuperClean® is a barn, stall, and trailer cleaner for routine surface cleanup. Remove horses, feed, bedding, and loose debris first; follow the current label for application, contact time, agitation, rinsing or wiping, and drying. Cleaning is not automatically the same as disinfection.
Take out manure, shavings, hay, dust, and mud before applying cleaner. This exposes the actual surface and keeps organic debris from turning the job into a slurry. Ensure ventilation and safe drainage.
Stall fronts, mats, trailer floors, ramps, walls, wash racks, and aisle edges may need different agitation and rinsing. Test an inconspicuous area when material compatibility is uncertain. Keep horses away until surfaces are rinsed or wiped and fully dry as directed.
If disease control, quarantine, or veterinary biosecurity requires a registered disinfectant, follow that protocol after proper cleaning. Shop the current SuperClean® 32oz cleaner for the ordinary barn-cleaning lane.
For suspected contagious disease, chemical exposure, breathing irritation, eye contact, or animal illness, stop and contact the appropriate veterinarian, poison resource, or medical professional.
