Re: Comfortmix hoof pad
I would like to add that the company advices no to use it over thin soles, but doesn´t explain why. I believe this might be a cause.

Dental impression material.
It can be used in casts to help cushion the sole and heel area. You could try casts instead of boots and pads. There's a bit of a learning curve to apply them but they

Re: Comfortmix hoof pad
Sorry Maria, no experience with it, but from what you are describing it sounds like it might be too hot to apply to thin soles. Can you use DIM instead?
