Smart Grooming Hoof Shine 425g Hoof Conditioner
Description
Smart Grooming Hoof Shine is a 425g natural hoof care preparation that moisturises, conditions and gives a glossy finish to the underside of the hoof. It is made in the United Kingdom with beeswax, eucalyptus and tea tree oil, and is designed for riders, grooms and producers who want a single product for both daily hoof maintenance and show-day presentation.
It is best for horses, ponies and cobs kept in a normal yard routine, and works equally well on a winter morning or a summer show day because the soft texture stays the same across all temperatures. Choose Natural for a clear finish that shows through the hoof's own colour, or Black for a deep, polished black finish.
Key Features
- Natural formulation - beeswax, eucalyptus and tea tree oil provide antibacterial properties along with moisturising and conditioning support for hoof tissue.
- High shine finish - delivers a glossy, well-presented look while supporting ongoing hoof condition over time.
- Two finish options - Natural enhances the existing hoof colour; Black adds a deep black colouring for a smart, polished appearance.
- Consistent all year - soft and easy to apply, with the same texture in hot and cold temperatures.
- Targeted care - formulated for the underside of the hoof, including the frog and cleft areas, as well as the hoof wall.
- Show compliance - Natural Hoof Shine is SSADL Compliant; Black Hoof Shine is not compliant with SSADL rulings due to the added colouring.
- 425g jar, made in the United Kingdom.
