We say...
Easy to use, no-rinse spray. When applied, it lifted stains to the surface of the horse’s coat, so you’d simply rub with a dry cloth to remove them. Also used on tails with great results. Offered a quick solution to cleaning and removing stains. Darker or more embedded stains required a fair amount more product, but effects were long-lasting. Good size bottle and found it useful that you could see how much was left. Left the coat with a lovely shine afterwards. Great results for both light and dark coloured coats. themanehub.co.uk
