Shapley's S Magic Sheen Polish

Smells great, works great, and leaves a shine.

I recently began working with a TWH with a thick as heck tail and mane. One day, I ran out of my on-hand Magic Sheen, which I had randomly bought a while back just because it smelled good in the store.When I ran out of this bottle, I went to TSC and got a more expensive conditioner and brought it to the barn to use and I swear it made the horse's tail feel like I had just poured super glue in it. I thought it was a fluke, so I washed his tail and tried again, and nope. I literally bought a bottle of super glue to spray in his poor tail. So I went back to the store to buy a bottle of the Magic Sheen and they were out. So I made my second mistake and bought a more well-known to me brand and figured it would be just fine. Nope. This time I bought a bottle of rubbing alcohol with a pretty fragrance. Poor horse didn't know why I was torturing him so with the tangles and combing and pulling. I got home, and immediately came on Amazon and ordered a gallon of the Magic Sheen because obviously it's the only stuff that's going to work on his mane and tail. There's no pulling, tangles, and briars come out easily, and sometimes I don't get out there to see him for over a week and it's still easy to work through his tail like I was just there the day before. I'm half-contemplating using this stuff on my daughter's noggin, too.This product is worth it weight in gold.I will never buy another brand again (Dumor and Mane 'n Tail). Holy frijoles, the differences between these products is just insane.

My horse has disgusting personal habits, one of which is that he doesn't like to hike his tail for Solid Waste Removal when he's wearing a sheet or coat. This means that his tail gets SUPER nasty. This product was recommended to me by the local Gypsy Vanner society, as they use it to keep their horses' feathers from getting completely clotted by mud and pasture ook. I've been using it for close on to ten years, and I won't be without it. I use it on my horse's tail at least once a week, and on his mane in cold dry weather so he doesn't get static buildup near his ears, and I spray it on his hocks to deal with the consequences of not hiking his tail. Regular use keeps it so that it's easy to comb out that dried ook, and it keeps his hair slick enough that the amount of ook that sticks in the first place is less than half of what it was before. And it doesn't dry his hair out at all.

I wanted an equine product that would keep manes and tails more healthy, soft, clean and pliable for extreme Utah weather. This product in combination with one other, has certainly accomplished that. I highly recommend its use year round.

I probably have tried 80% of all the detanglers out there. For everyday use on my Friesian, it’s hard to beat Shapley's Magic Sheen Polish. His mane hair is fragile the product’s light weight but effective. Not oily, sticky or drying. It’s my daily go to for managing. Glad it’s available in gallon size.

This is the greatest product for using when grooming dogs. We dilute it 50/50 with warm water and it leaves the coat feeling soft and silky, and really helps bust the matts, with absolutely no left over tackiness or gummy feeling. The gallon container was a pleasant surprise as the largest our local retailer has is the 32 once and it is the same price as this gallon was!We began using it for combating static electricity in the Winter but quickly realized it is a great year round product to combat matts and general flyaway coat issues.

Love this stuff. Makes any mane or tail easy to comb out
