Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest life for your turnout rug, proper care is essential.
- Fitting: Ensure the front buckles are adjusted so the blanket sits comfortably without sliding back.
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or hose to remove mud from the outer shell. If the blanket requires a deep wash, use mild, horse-safe detergent and cold water. Avoid harsh chemicals that can strip the waterproof repellent coating.
- Storage: Always dry the rug completely before storing it in a cool, dark, and dry area to prevent mold growth.
- Maintenance: Regularly check the leg straps and cross surcingles for wear and tear to ensure the blanket stays securely positioned.
