FAQ
What is the Hy Equestrian Progroom Gel Grip Bucket Brush used for?
It is a stiff-bristled brush for scrubbing feed and water buckets, water containers and troughs, helping to remove feed residue, algae and built-up grime. It can also be used on dirty hooves and to loosen mud during grooming.
Are the bristles too stiff to use on a horse?
The bristles are stiff and best suited to hard surfaces, hooves and dried mud on the lower legs rather than sensitive areas. For coat and body work, use a body brush or softer dandy brush instead.
Is the handle comfortable when wet?
Yes. The gel grip handle is designed to give a secure, non-slip hold, which helps when your hands are wet or soapy and you are applying pressure to stubborn grime.
Should I use the same brush for water buckets and hooves?
For hygiene, many owners keep one brush for drinking water containers and a second for hooves and mud. If you use one brush for both, rinse it thoroughly between tasks.
How do I look after the brush?
Rinse the bristles under clean water after use, shake out the excess and store the brush bristle-side down or hung up so that it can dry properly between jobs.
