Supplies

  • Soft brush (prep)
  • Clean towel (optional)
  • Gloves (optional)

Step-by-Step

1) Prep Clean & Dry

Brush off dust and wipe clean. Dry surfaces help the spray land and stay put.

2) Shake & Test

Shake the bottle. Test a quick spray to confirm an even pattern.

3) Spray Thin & Even

Hold 6–8 inches away and apply a light, even coat to the intended external areas as directed on the label. Avoid eyes, mouth, and any broken or irritated skin.

4) Let It Set

Give it a short set time before turnout, boots, or tack to reduce transfer.

5) Reapply as Needed

Follow label directions for frequency. Reapply after rain, heavy sweat, or washing as appropriate.

6) Store Smart

Cap tightly and store at room temperature. Keep out of extreme heat/cold.


Simple Programs

  • Baseline: Light pre-ride or pre-turnout coverage, 3–4x/week.
  • Dusty / rainy stretch: Daily light coverage; reassess and taper.
  • Hauling days: Light application before loading if your routine calls for it.

Track what works—every horse writes their own playbook.


Pro Tips

  • Distance wins: 6–8 inches gives the most even coverage.
  • Dry first: Clean, dry surfaces perform best.
  • Less is more: Thin, even coats beat heavy spots—and reduce transfer.
