Getting whites white

[LansdownK310]

Any shampoos or magical formulas for removing poo stains from my coloured mare? Spent a long time scrubbing with a blue shampoo and stain remover to no avail and still had a yellow tinge.

Had most of her covered with a combo rug but she made up for it on her legs!

Thanks

Red Rum stain remover is good stuff....spot wash with water as warm as you can stand and one of those body puff type things as you can get a good scrub on. Best to do it regularly to keep them clean....once you let the stain sit it's much harder to get off!

Cowboy Magic green spot remover, I have been told, is simply amazing. My friend has a traditional coloured cob with masses of white feather, and she washes with Wahl Diamond White shampoo (always with warm/hot water, it doesn't work with cold), then puts the Cowboy Magic on the yellow stains round the bottom of his feathers. And he scrubs up a treat, his white bits sparkle!
I have a coloured hunter type youngster and used Wahl diamond white shampoo on his legs when I was dithering over whether to keep his feathers (he is Irish cob X ISH) for showing, but he had a huge growth spurt and looked silly as a lanky traditional type, so I whipped off his feathers and pulled his mane. Next season I will be using sheep face whitener for his legs, you paint it on, leave to dry - it turns from a paste into a chalky layer - and brush off the next morning for the show. X
