World of Showjumping asked several highly experienced grooms to share their best tips & tricks. In this next part of our series, we find out how the grooms clean their tack and what they believe to be the best tack cleaning products.
”Cleaning tack is easy if you do it good every time. I always have one sponge to wipe and one sponge to soap. I like to use Stübben saddle soap and have used it for many years and there really isn’t any better. We also oil the tack often enough with our sponsor’s Amerigo soft oil. And always clean the bit proper - nothing drives me more crazy than an unclean bit.”
“I love, love, love Stübben saddle soap. I grew up using this and have never changed from it. It gives a good shine and isn’t sticky.
We like to give the saddles a good conditioning with Butet cream conditioner once a week. For the daily cleaning of the saddles we just rub them with a damp cloth, since we don’t like to get soap on them every day.”
