Product Information
Full details
Waldhausen Glittering Hoof Gel is designed for horse owners who want to combine essential hoof care with a touch of aesthetic flair. It is ideal for riders looking to maintain hoof moisture and flexibility while adding a vibrant pink finish, making it a great choice for competitions or special events. While it provides excellent conditioning benefits through ingredients like glycerin and propylene glycol, it is primarily a cosmetic and moisture-maintenance tool and should not be used as a replacement for intensive veterinary hoof treatments.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Can I use this on a wet hoof?
For best performance, the hoof should be clean and dry. Moisture on the hoof may prevent the gel from adhering correctly.
Is the glitter harmful to the horse?
The product is designed for topical use on the hoof wall and is safe when used as directed.
How often can I apply the gel?
It can be applied as needed, including daily, as part of your regular grooming and maintenance routine.
Does this replace my hoof oil?
It provides moisture-balancing benefits, but it is primarily a cosmetic product. If your horse has severe hoof issues, consult your farrier.
Will the pink color stain the floor?
While intended for the hoof, the pigment may transfer to surfaces if touched while wet. Allow it to dry thoroughly before walking on light-colored carpets or fabrics.
What is the best way to remove it?
The gel can be easily removed by washing the hoof with water and a mild scrubbing brush.
Troubleshooting
Gel is not sticking to the hoof.
Ensure the hoof is completely dry and free of dirt or old hoof oil before application.
The glitter finish looks patchy.
Use a wider, soft-bristle brush and apply in one consistent, thin layer rather than thick, uneven dabs.
The scent has faded.
This is normal over time; ensure the lid is sealed tightly to preserve the fragrance for as long as possible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No complex setup is required for this product. Ensure the container lid is tightly closed after every use to prevent the gel from drying out or collecting debris. Store the container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the surfactants and fragrances. The gel is compatible with standard synthetic and natural bristle hoof brushes. If you are switching from a heavy oil-based dressing, ensure you have cleaned the hoof thoroughly, as residues from previous products may affect how the glitter finish adheres to the hoof wall.
