Troubleshooting

Balm seems too hard to apply.

Warm the tin slightly by placing it in a warm (not hot) environment or using a hairdryer on a low setting for a moment. Alternatively, warm the application brush or finger.

Hooves still appear dry after application.

Ensure the hoof was thoroughly cleaned and dried before application. Apply more frequently, potentially twice daily, and consider environmental factors like extreme dryness or wetness.

Excessive shine or greasy residue.

A small amount of product goes a long way. Reduce the quantity applied for subsequent applications. Ensure the hoof is fully dry before applying.

Tin is difficult to open.

Gently run warm water around the lid edge or use a rubber grip to help loosen it.
