Start with a clean dry hoof. Wash and dry hands as well. Work a piece of Keratex Hoof Putty in your hands until it turns soft and tacky. Press this piece of putty into the cavity. Repeat until the cavity is filled and putty is level with surrounding horn or sole. When shoeing over or close to areas filled with Hoof Putty it is essential that only cold shoeing or gluing is used. Where Hoof Putty has been applied under a shoe, it must be replaced at next shoeing. In all other cases check weekly and replace as required.
Once inserted, Keratex Hoof Putty hardens to its former state, providing a good seal against water and dirt, and can be used on either shod or unshod hooves.
