I always suggest that people scrub the frog thoroughly with a soap like Dawn Dish Detergent and rinse completely, because I've found that scrubbing alone is a powerful treatment. Cyclingnews' Tech Editor, Aaron Borrill, adds that he had a similar experience with Elite when he replaced the belt in his Direto XR. Oxine DOES NOT need to be mixed with Citric Acid to be used! It can be very effective if mixed with water. Citric Acid activation makes it a more powerful soak.

Immerse the hoof completely into the Cleantrax solution (If a bag is used, pull the top of the bag up above the knee and tie or tape it closed).John said that thetype of water we use with Oxine makes a difference. If well water has high iron levels, Oxine will be less effective, so its better to use de ionized water if you have high iron levels. Clean the horses feet thoroughly, scrub the frog well, trim any shedding or lose frog flaps and put the horses feet in soaking boots

N.B. CleanTrax solution is good for a total of 90 minutes, so you can use the same solution to soak two hooves consecutively. When you are finished soaking, the solution can be poured or sprayed onto the stall floor, trailer mats and trimming area to eliminate fungal spores.

It smells and looks exactly like clean trax.. The active ingredient is active clorine derived from calcium hypochlorite 3-4% available clorine 6-8 %. Its PH is that of skin and hoof which is why it is non damaging to healthy tissue. Clean trax I believe is made from the same active ingredients. It says on the box Topical Bioicide, Bactericide-Viricide-fungicde-sporicide. Pour all the CleanTrax solution into a CleanTrax hoof boot, a reinforced plastic bag, or a tall medicating boot.do you think you have thrush because that is what you want him to have rather than anything else? I don't see a thrush problem, it is a case where keeping the sulchus well cleaned and dried would be helpful and making sure the grooves are clean but that is all.

Before use, remove horseshoes or anything else on the hoof. If the horse is going to be shod, clean and prepare the hoof for shoeing first. A CleantraxDeep Penetrating Horse Hoof Cleanser in a 25 Gram Bottle.Easy To Use and Ideal for Soaking and Treatments for Horses Hooves.

How Does CleanTrax Work?

There are two separate areas for me I suppose. The first is where the shoe came off in the field and took some hoof wall with it. So there's a bit of hoof not touching the floor already and there's a small hole under there. It's quite shallow and I can easily to get in to clean it and squirt it with whatever but given that it's already a little way up from ground level I don't want it to travel any further. I was looking this morning to see if I thought the farrier would be able to cut it away without compromising what's left to stand on and I'm undecided. It's what I would ideally like and on the one hand I think that given that bit of hoof wall has already gone maybe it will be possible. That's obviously up to the farrier to decide though.
