Mud Shield Powder works on that step. It is a fine powder you shake onto a clean, dry leg and rub in against the lie of the hair, and it waterproofs the skin so the water never gets the chance to soften it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a dry powder rather than a barrier cream, which is the reason people who have tried both come back to it: nothing sticky to hold mud against the leg, and nothing to wash off. Keratex also state it carries disinfectant properties, and where there are already lesions the powder is used to keep them dry so scabs can form and shed in their own time rather than being picked at.\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaterproofs legs and body against the effects of mud and water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStops the skin softening — which is the step that lets mud particles into the pores and causes the irritation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA dry powder, so nothing tacky is left on the leg for mud to stick to.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeratex state the formula also carries disinfectant properties.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhere lesions already exist, it keeps them dry and lets scabs form and shed naturally.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e450g shaker bottle, applied daily through the wet months.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHorses and ponies turned out onto wet, poached or muddy ground.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLegs prone to scabbing and broken skin over a wet winter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeathered and heavy types where the leg stays wet under the hair.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaily preventative use through autumn and winter, applied before turnout.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot a hoof product — for the horn itself, Keratex Hoof Gel is the waterproofing treatment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStart with skin that is genuinely clean and dry — powder onto a wet leg does nothing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSprinkle from the shaker onto the leg and rub it well in against the direction of hair growth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply daily while conditions stay wet, ideally before turnout.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhere there are lesions, use it to keep the area dry and leave the scabs to shed on their own.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep the lid closed between uses so the powder stays dry in the bottle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e450g plastic shaker bottle with a perforated dispensing top.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeratex barcode 5036486000147.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeratex publish no ingredient list or percentage composition for Mud Shield Powder, so none is stated here.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSome retail listings describe this powder as approved by the Jockey Club and the FEI.
