FAQs
Do I need to rinse my horse after using this?
No, this is a specialized no-rinse formula designed to be left on the coat to dry.
Can I use this on a sensitive-skinned horse?
Yes, it is formulated for all coat types, but as with any product, patch test a small area first if your horse has known allergies.
Is it safe for competition use?
Absolutely. The product contains no banned substances according to FEI and BHA guidelines.
Can I use this in cold weather?
Yes, you can dilute the product in warm water to help clean your horse without the chilling effect of a full cold-water wash.
Should I apply this to the face?
It is best to avoid the immediate eye and nose area. Use a damp cloth with plain water for facial cleaning instead.
Troubleshooting
Streaking on the coat after drying
Ensure the product is properly diluted with water; using too much concentrate can leave a residue.
Strong scent intensity
If the fragrance is too strong for your horse, increase the water-to-product dilution ratio slightly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare the wash, mix the concentrated solution with either warm or cold water according to the instructions on the bottle. Use a standard grooming sponge or a soft cloth to apply the mixture directly to the coat, focusing on areas where sweat accumulates, such as the saddle patch, neck, and girth area. Gently rub the coat to loosen dirt, and then allow it to dry naturally. Store the bottle in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the potency of the citronella scent and active ingredients. Ensure the cap is tightly closed after each use to prevent spills.
