Schneiders® Horse Blanket Wash
Gets the mud and manure out, leaves the waterproofing in
A concentrated, low-suds, phosphate-free wash made for turnouts, sheets, coolers, wraps and pads. Two ounces does a home machine load, rinses clean with no residue, and does not strip the waterproof coating the way household detergent can. HE safe, any water temperature. Made in the USA.
1
Cleans without stripping the waterproofing
A non-ionic formula that lifts heavy dirt from the shell but leaves the waterproof coating alone, so a clean turnout still sheds rain. That is the reason to use it instead of what is under your sink.
2
Two ounces per load
Concentrated: 2 oz in a home machine, 2 to 5 oz in a commercial one, 2 to 3 oz in 5 gallons by hand. The 16 oz bottle washes about 8 blankets, the 32 oz about 16, the gallon about 64.
3
Low suds, no residue
Minimal sudsing means it rinses out completely, which matters for a blanket that will sit against skin all winter. Safe for HE washers, and works in any water temperature.
4
Easy on fabric, skin and the drain
Phosphate-free and biodegradable. Brightens colors and freshens the smell; for stubborn odors, pair it with Schneiders® Odor Killing & Freshening Wash.
Finding the Right Fit
Measure once, order once. Most horses nail their size on the first try.
1
Shake out and close the strapsKnock the loose mud and shavings off outside, then fasten every buckle and strap so nothing snags in the drum.
2
Load it, add two ouncesBlanket in, 2 oz in a home machine (2 to 5 in a commercial one). Warm water, not hot.
3
No bleach, no softenerNothing else in the load. Both can damage a waterproof breathable shell.
4
Rinse and hang to dryIt rinses out clean. Hang the blanket and let it dry fully before it goes back on or into storage.

What Horse Owners Are Saying
★★★★★
Best blanket wash that keeps the color and actually gets the blankets clean. Follow directions for best results. I have been able to keep using blankets for years thanks to this product.
★★★★★
Have been using this for about a year now after my other stand-by stopped offering larger sizes. This blanket wash is SO good that I no longer have to pre-treat heavy sweat areas, and it cuts through most of the urine stains embedded on the tail cords. I will buy this again and again, provided they continue to offer it in gallon size containers. HIGHLY recommend!
★★★★★
Lasts a long time for many wash loads; gets dirt out better than other brands I have tried. I only have cold water in my barn washing machine--this blanket wash does the job.

"Love,love this blanket wash. cleans great and eliminates the stinkiness. Especially since I use at a public Laundromat, blankets don't smell and washer isn't left stinky"
Great Stuff
"I was skeptical at first, thinking this detergent couldn't possibly be so special. BUT HOLY SMOKES I was wrong! This soap cleans, freshens, keeps the waterproofing "healthy" and allows the fabric to continue to breathe without any funky residue. I won't us anything else now."
