Extended Product Information

FAQs

How long does the shine typically last?

The duration of the shine depends on environmental conditions. It's designed for a smart, temporary finish and may require reapplication for longer events or if exposed to significant moisture.

Can I use this on a horse with thrush?

This product is a cosmetic enhancement and should not be used as a treatment for hoof conditions like thrush. It's recommended to treat any hoof ailments with appropriate veterinary products first.

Does this product strengthen the hoof?

No, the Hy Equestrian Magic Hoof Paint is a cosmetic product intended to provide a shiny finish. It does not contain ingredients designed to strengthen or improve hoof structure.

What is the best way to apply it for a streak-free finish?

Apply in thin, even coats, working from the coronet band down. Using a soft brush or the applicator in smooth strokes can help achieve a streak-free appearance.

Is the black color very intense?

The 'Black' variant provides a natural-looking, smart finish. It is designed to enhance the hoof's natural color to a deep, polished black rather than an artificial, stark black.

Can this be used on artificial hooves or extensions?

This product is formulated for natural horse hooves. Its performance and adhesion on artificial materials are not guaranteed.

Does it have a strong odor?

As a water-based product, it typically has a mild odor and is less likely to have the strong chemical smell associated with some solvent-based hoof paints.

Troubleshooting

Product is too thick or clumpy

Ensure the product has been shaken thoroughly. If still thick, a tiny amount of water can be added and mixed well, but avoid adding too much as it may dilute the finish.

Uneven finish after application

Apply in thin, even coats. Ensure the hoof surface is smooth and free from debris. Brushing out any clumps before it dries can help.

Hooves still appear dry despite using the product

This product is primarily cosmetic. For significant dryness, consider using a dedicated hoof moisturizer or oil in conjunction with this product, applying it after the hoof paint has fully dried.

Product washes off too easily

Ensure the hoof was completely dry before application. For enhanced durability in damp conditions, a very light application might be sufficient, but note that the water-based formula's primary benefit is easy removal.

  3. Apply a thin, even coat using the integrated applicator or a suitable brush.

Compatibility:
