How to apply RainBó Roller tail paint
Tail paint can be easily applied along the tail head of the cow in a narrow
strip. The tail paint method detects cows that are in oestrus by indicating
those which have been mounted when the paint has been rubbed off.

• Use clippers to trim any long hair prior to paint application.
• Tail head area should be dry and remove any loose hair and dirt.
• Begin by rolling forwards from the tail 8-10 inches in on cows back and
then roll back towards you over same area again (as shown in photo
below).
• The first roll will flatten hair and the second will give an even application
of paint.
• Very fast, efficient and even application compared to brush application.
• For best results, cows should be checked at regular intervals throughout
the day during breeding season for signs of wear. Paint should be kept
topped up to ensure detection enabling a compact calving period.
