FAQs

How often should I apply the Keratex Coconut Oil Hoof Balm?

Apply daily or as needed, depending on the environmental conditions and the horse's hoof health.

Can I use this balm on a horse with sensitive skin?

Yes, but perform a small patch test first to check for any adverse reactions, especially if the horse is known to have sensitivities.

Is the black balm safe for light-colored hooves?

How long does a tin of the balm typically last?

The 400g tin will last depending on how often you apply it and the size of your horse, on average, a tin lasts several weeks to months.

Can this balm be used on shod hooves?

Yes, it can be applied to the hoof wall and coronet band, avoiding the sole in shod hooves.

What are the ingredients in Keratex Coconut Oil Hoof Balm?

The balm contains a blend of coconut oil, beeswax, and tea tree oil.

Troubleshooting

Balm appears too thick.

Warm the balm slightly by storing it in a warmer area or gently rubbing a small amount between your hands before applying.
