when warm i bath simon in detergent and shampoo, i groom him everyday, I condition his mane and tail!!!! I guess I don't know what I do, but everyone tells me that my horse is always so shiny and pretty!!

No matter what season it is I ALWAYS use the shedding blade first and then go back over with a good grooma/curry. I use the Oster grooma....I have found that it holds up better and gets more dirt loose and off better. Then, after I use the stiff brush I clean feet out BEFORE I use the soft finishing brush. I find that I tend to flick up stuff from cleaning the feet and so I can get those little bits off when I go back over with the soft brush.

i use coat conditioner, it's from a small buisness in minnesota, my tackroomate gave me a bottle aand i love it! and it doesn't dry out their hair like showsheem, and for the white markes there coat clean, a non soap that gets out green spots with only the stuff..no water needed, they also make tail untangler works great, and once again doesnt dry out the hair

My sister and I use a nine brush system. We use the hardest brushes and work up to the softest brush in the box. It does take time but if your consistent than you will have a gorgeous coat no matter what spray you use! Can't think of anything else, l ol
