Smart Grooming Quarter Marking Gel for Horses
Description
Smart Grooming Quarter Marking Gel — Clear, Strong-Hold Coat Prep for Sharp Show Marks
Smart Grooming Quarter Marking Gel is a lightweight, transparent grooming gel that primes the coat and creates a smooth base for quarter marks. It is made for grooms, producers and riders who want sharp, long-lasting patterns on show day without visible product on the coat.
The gel dries with a strong hold and a natural sheen, helping the design stay put through warm-ups, classes and travelling. Bonding agents are balanced with conditioning oils so the coat keeps its flexibility and shine.
Key Features
- Transparent formula — minimises visible product for crisp, clean quarter marks on any coat colour.
- Strong day-long hold — helps lock the design in place against movement and sweat, reducing touch-ups.
- Natural sheen — dries to a durable finish while adding gloss to the coat.
- Conditioning oils — argan oil, vitamin E and castor oil help protect the coat and preserve flexibility.
- Best for sharkstooth, chequerboard and stencil marks on show-day, practice and routine grooming.
- Works across coat textures — fine summer coats through to thicker native coats when used as directed.
- Pairs with Quarter Marking Spray for extra longevity and gloss.

FAQ
Will the gel leave white residue on a dark coat?
No. The formula is transparent and designed to minimise visible product, so marks stay clean-looking on dark and light coats alike.
How long do the quarter marks last?
The gel forms a strong, day-long hold that helps keep the design in place against movement and sweat. Finishing with Quarter Marking Spray adds further longevity.
Do I apply it to a wet or dry coat?
Dampen the coat first, then apply the gel liberally and work it evenly into the hair before combing or stencilling your marks.
Can I use it on a thick or native pony coat?
Yes. It works across different coat textures when used as directed, although thicker coats usually need a more generous application.
What is in it?
Water, Acrylates/VP Copolymer, Argan Oil, Vitamin E, Castor Oil and Parfume — a balance of bonding agents and conditioning oils.
Can I fix a mark that goes wrong?
Yes. The predictable, transparent formula makes correction straightforward if you rework the area before the gel has fully dried.
