Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Red Gorilla Body Brush requires no assembly. Simply insert your hand through the fitted strap for immediate use.
Compatibility: This body brush is suitable for use on most horses and ponies. It is designed for use on the body, legs, and hindquarters. Always assess your individual horse's coat and skin sensitivity before applying firm pressure, especially on thinner-skinned areas.
Care: To clean the brush, rinse it thoroughly with water after each use to remove accumulated hair and dirt. Allow it to air dry completely. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents, as these can degrade the synthetic bristles and polypropylene handle. Store in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prolong its lifespan.
