Kevin Bacon's Black Hoof Dressing Balm

Kevin Bacon's Black Hoof Dressing Balm is a 100% natural balm of animal fat and fresh laurel leaves, macerated to release their active substances. Natural vine ash gives it its dark color — the ash is also slightly antiseptic, and does not alter the quality of the balm. Like the Original, it penetrates the hoof rather than simply adding shine.

Best for

• Routine conditioning where a dark finish is preferred
• Keeping the hoof wall from drying out through changeable weather
• Barns that prefer a natural balm over a petroleum-based dressing
