Carr \u0026amp; Day \u0026amp; Martin build it on linseed oil, grape (grapeseed) oil and tea tree oil, held together with beeswax in a 500ml recyclable tin.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe practical argument for a solid balm is that it does not spill. A tin does not go over in the grooming box, it does not run down the hoof pick, and it brushes on without the drips a hoof oil leaves across the yard. Carr \u0026amp; Day \u0026amp; Martin suggest daily use on clean, dry hooves and say visible results typically take six to eight weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e \u0026lt;\u0026gt; \u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eBlack pigmented formula for dark hooves, giving a rich colour and a show-ready gloss.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLinseed oil, which Carr \u0026amp; Day \u0026amp; Martin credit with supporting elasticity in the hoof horn.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGrape (grapeseed) oil for light hydration and shine without greasiness.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTea tree oil, included for hoof hygiene in wet and muddy conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBeeswax forms a breathable barrier that holds moisture in and mud and wet out.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSolid, non-spill format in a 500ml recyclable tin — no drips, no leaking bottle in the box.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u0026lt;\u0026gt; \u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDark hooves, on horses and ponies of any size.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDaily hoof conditioning as part of a routine, not just before a class.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eShowing and competition, where an even black finish is wanted.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eYards that have had enough of hoof oil bottles going over in the grooming box.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWrong choice for light, striped or part-white hooves and white feather — the Carr Day \u0026amp; Martin Cornucrescine Daily Hoof Balm Clear 500ml is the version for those.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u0026lt;\u0026gt; \u003ch5\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003ePick out and brush off the hoof first.
