Can I use this on cracks or damaged hooves?
The product is designed to moisturize and maintain healthy hooves. For significant cracks or damage, it is advisable to consult with a veterinarian or a qualified farrier.
Is this product safe if my horse ingests a small amount?
While the ingredients are natural, the product is intended for external use only. Ensure your horse does not ingest large quantities. Keep out of reach of children and animals when not in use.
What does 'doping-free' mean for my horse?
'Doping-free' means the product is guaranteed to contain no substances that are prohibited in equestrian sports, making it safe to use on competition horses.
How does the brush applicator work?
The brush is integrated into the lid of the container. Simply open the lid, and the brush is ready to be used to apply the gel directly to the hoof.
Will this make the hoof slippery?

What is the shelf life of the product?
Typically, the product has a shelf life of 2-3 years when stored correctly in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed. Refer to the batch number or packaging for specific expiry dates.
Troubleshooting
Product consistency is uneven or separated.
Stir the product well with the built-in brush before application to recombine any separated layers.
Gel is difficult to spread.
Ensure the hoof is clean and dry. If the gel is very firm, a brief massage of the product inside the container might help soften it slightly.
Accidental contact with other surfaces.
Wipe away excess immediately with a damp cloth. While non-greasy, it's best to avoid contact with tack or other equipment.
