There is nothing wrong with the product...it's the bottle. Clots up in the applicator tip every time. Usually I don't think to rinse it out, and there I am needing to apply it to a tag tip. Don't rely on the applicator. Just take the top off and glop it on.

Very good. No infection in ears after tagging.

It's lube. Downside if it gets cold its very stiff. I use for all tagging, never have had any issue with infections.

This is the best lube I have used. I usually order the 16 ounce size because it fits nicely into my kidding bag but holds plenty to use if we get into a situation pulling kids.

Best I have used, better than I have expected. Do not be fooled by genetics or something you can use from home. It is just thick enough to hold still onto the tag. We had some restless kids we juggled this year and the lube held tight to the commotion and did not slip. There is a difference in piercing with and without the product. I will never go without.
