FAQs

How do I clean the reflective strips?
Gently wipe the reflective piping with a damp cloth to remove mud or dust; avoid harsh scrubbing that could damage the reflective coating.
Is the material durable for field use?
The mesh material is designed for exercise and riding. It is not recommended for turnout in a field with sharp objects or aggressive playmates.
Troubleshooting
Sheet sliding sideways during exercise
Ensure the fillet string is correctly tensioned and properly threaded through the tail to keep the fabric centered.
Velcro losing its grip
Clean the velcro surface with a soft brush to remove any trapped hair or dirt, which can prevent the hooks from latching correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To apply, simply drape the sheet over the horse's back and secure the velcro front fastenings across the chest. Ensure the fillet string is looped through the tail to prevent the sheet from blowing upward in windy conditions. For maintenance, it is recommended to hand wash or machine wash on a delicate cycle using mild detergent. Always air dry the sheet away from direct heat sources to preserve the integrity of the reflective material and velcro fastenings.
