Use baby powder or corn starch and rub it into the white areas. Then brush off any excess. They also sell some stuff in mags with glitter in it, it makes them sparkle in the light. Try valleyvet.com

SOMEONE SAID: Actually, in horse reality, kid, the color ‘white’ they call it ‘grey’. i know it sounds weird, but its true. ask your vet.—

Sorry, you’re wrong. Paint’s markings are called white. All white horses, however, are ‘grey’. Not paints.

Get hair color remover from the store. Use it on that area, it takes color out immediately and safely

Baby powder RIGHT before you enter the ring. Well at least if you're showing dressage or jumping etc.! probably not a good idea for something where the judge is going to have to touch the horse. They might not like white powder on them!

show white or any of the whitening shampoos for horses with show sheen inbetween to help keep the white white. IF you get to a show and the horse gets soiled on the white, you can buy a can of white spray coloring (they sell it for cattle use so is safe) IF your show doesnt state anything against it, or if its just small areas that are soiled , you could use white groomers chalk. Baby powder will also work on legs ,but not as bright as the groomers chalk. Once you get a horse white, keeping it white is not too major a problem unless you live in a red clay area and the horse loves to roll in that mud, that is the worst thing i have ever had to get off a horse! Nothing seems to take the red out ofthe hair coat! Showsheen or any of that type of conditoner will work great in helping keep the white clean, about the only thing that will go thru it is grass stains, and usually they are not very bad considering what they would be like without using it! IF you use blueing, be careful you do not use too much and wind up with a blue horse! have seen that happen and its hard to get out! good luck, i love paints and pintos of all types and have owned some, but were stabled so didnt have the dirty white problem often! thats something you could do also, stall the horse the night before the show, in order to keep it from rolling after the bath, as most will immediately go out and take a good roll in the worst place they can find! lol.
