The Supreme Products Guide to Bathing and Trimming: Part Two


At first glance, it would appear that all horse shampoos are the same. However, there are important differences between each type. Choosing the right one, depending on the colour of your horse among many other things, can make bathing a whole lot easier and the end result much more spectacular!

The Horse That Attracts Dirt

We all know how frustrating it can be to spend hours scrubbing at a horrible yellow stable stain or mud patch. Fortunately, things don't have to be as labour intensive anymore, thanks to Supreme Products Stain Remover Shampoo.

Designed specifically for targeting affected areas, this shampoo needs to be worked into the skin and is perfect for use on older or more established stains on the body, legs and even yellow stains in the tail.

If you feel your horse is really dirty turn to Supreme Products Stain Remover Spray, developed to dissolve and lift vegetable based stains quickly from the coat, legs and hocks.

Ideal for use as a precursor to bathing or even on the morning of a show, Supreme Products Stain Remover Spray is an essential emergency piece of kit.

Black and Brown Coats

It is important when looking at shampoos that you choose one that will bring out the true bloom, as well as adding lustre and shine.

Bay and Brown coats can often look dull, which is partially due to the scurf and dirt that is most visible in this colour of coat.

Supreme Products High Shine Shampoo has been designed specifically for challenging the build-up of coat preparations which have built up throughout the show season. This is a valuable shampoo in the early season and is brilliant after clipping. High Shine Shampoo is highly effective in removing grease, dirt and scurf and leaving the coat silky and shiny.

Whilst great for Bay and Browns this shampoo also adds shine and lustre to all coat colours, making it extremely versatile.

Chestnut and Bright Bay Coats

With a specialist colour enhancing formulation, Supreme Products Chestnut Shampoo is highly concentrated with added conditioners to increase depth of colour, promote chestnut tones and eliminate fading.

Supreme Products Chestnut Shampoo produces a beautiful and highly lustrous finish to your horse’s coat, making him look and feel like a true champion. This shampoo can be particularly beneficial in restoring colour to faded coats during the summer months.

Palomino and Dun Coats

Supreme Products Palomino Shampoo contains natural brighteners and honey conditioner specifically formulated for use on palomino, golden dun and light coloured show coats. It helps enhance their natural colour and produces a brilliant show ring finish.

Palomino and Dun horses are a minority colour group therefore they do stand out in the ring. This product will make your horse look extra special in the ring and can bring an extra shine to a coat that very rarely glistens and gleams.

Brighter Whites

For those of you who have grey, white or coloured horses, you will be inundated with whitening products and shampoos, so how do you know which one to choose?

Tried and tested by many showing professionals Supreme Products Blue Shampoo adds a bright and white finish to show ring turnout. This shampoo, containing optical brighteners for light coats, is sure to make white and grey horses stand out from the crowd. It is also really effective and useful on coloured coats – for brightening and whitening the light coat and for adding depth of colour and shine to the darker coat.

For extra definition and whitening, Supreme Products Leg and Body Whitener can also be used to whiten the body, mane and tail, and is perfect for covering stable stains and unsightly marks. The powder can be mixed with water to create a paste and then applied to the legs to create the whitest and brightest socks in the show ring, socks that really dazzle!

Damaged or Dry Coats

New to the Supreme Products Professional Collection is Supreme Products Show Shampoo and Conditioner which is suitable for use on all coat colours and textures to restore lustre and shine. This almond and coconut shampoo contains conditioners to help restore damaged or dry coats, manes and tails. This shampoo will help to produce a brilliant show ring finish to all coat colours.

The Secret Weapon!

When you feel you really want to get ahead in the turnout stakes and want to pull out all the stops, why not go for something a little extra?

Bearing in mind a little goes a long way Supreme Products Blue Rinse has been described as ‘magic’ in a pot and can be added to the final rinse to accentuate and add definition to grey’s and all coat colour’s.

The Supreme Products Guide to Bathing and Trimming: Part One

The spring shows are coming up fast and it's time to start transforming that muddy field monster into a shiny show ring superstar. Along with correct feeding, grooming and exercise, bathing and trimming will take you one step closer to show ring success. Over the following few days, we will be posting bathing and trimming tips which will soon have you standing at the top of the line!

Top Tips for Bathing

Before bathing your horse, make sure the hooves are clean and free from mud. Many people make the mistake of washing the legs and hooves and dragging the dirty sponge across the horse's coat.

If your horse's coat is particularly dull, have a look at what you are feeding him- a good diet normally enhances the bloom of the coat. Many show ring champions rely on a well thought out feeding programme, as well as a specific bathing routine and certain must-have products.

Before your first show of the season, make sure you have bathed your horse a couple of times so that all the dirt and grease is lifted to the top of the coat. Thorough brushing of the hair where the stains are before washing also helps to lift the dirt.

Ensure your horse is thoroughly soaked before adding the shampoo and try using a water brush or Supreme Products Slika Grooming Rake, not just a sponge to ensure you get to the roots of the coat hairs.

This not only reaches deep down into the coat but also acts as a massage to your horse. When shampooing, lather up and use all over the coat, leaving the shampoo on the coat, where possible, for a couple of minutes to sink and start to work.

The key to successful bathing is good and thorough rinsing, shampoo that has been left in the coat can dry white and ‘scurfy’.

After bathing your horse remove all the excess water with a sweat scraper and spray all over with Supreme Products De Luxe Coat Gloss, this not only creates a shine to the coat but also seals the hairs to minimise overnight staining and is an effective mud repellent.

If you have a problem keeping your horse stain-free overnight, the Supreme Products Body Wrap covers the whole horse, helping him to remain clean until the morning. The Supreme Products range of Hoods and Garments has something for everyone helping you maintain a show ring coat all year round and they are designed specifically to lay the coat as well as add condition and shine and to aid preparation and presentation.
