Product Information
Full details
Smart Grooming Peppermint Splosh Wash is an essential cooling rinse designed for horse owners seeking an effective, daily solution to clean and refresh their animal after exercise. This soap-free formula utilizes peppermint oil and witch hazel to lift sweat, dirt, and grease while soothing sore muscles, though users should be mindful that it is primarily a leave-on rinse rather than a deep-scrubbing shampoo.

FAQs
Do I need to rinse the product off after applying?
No, Smart Grooming Peppermint Splosh Wash is designed as a leave-on rinse, making it ideal for quick cooling.
Can I use this product on a sensitive horse?
The formula is soap-free and gentle; however, it is recommended to conduct a patch test on a small area of skin before applying it to the entire body.
How do I use this for bruising?
You can apply the wash undiluted directly to the bruised area on the legs to help provide cooling relief.
Is this safe to use every day?
Yes, because it contains no soap or harsh detergents, it is formulated to be gentle enough for daily use.
What is the main benefit of the peppermint oil?
Peppermint oil provides an invigorating cooling sensation that helps refresh the coat and soothe tired, overworked muscles.
Troubleshooting
Horse shows signs of skin irritation after use
Immediately rinse the area thoroughly with clean water and discontinue use to check for allergic reactions to the ingredients.
The solution feels too oily or sticky on the coat
Ensure you are strictly adhering to the dilution ratio of one capful per litre of water; using too much product can cause residue.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare the wash, ensure you have a clean bucket and a large sponge. Mix one capful of the solution into one litre of water; no further preparation is needed. The product is compatible with all horse coat types but should be kept in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the potency of the essential oils. Always perform a patch test on a small area of the skin if your horse has a history of skin sensitivities before full-body application.
