Imprint Granules

sticky like gum, and transparent in appearance, except for Imprint Plus - Graphite.

Imprint Granules used with Imprint  Therapeutic Shoes enable significant remodelling and balancing of the hoof.

To use: Add the desired  amount of  Granules to  hot water with the already softening Imprint Therapeutic Shoe, when  the Imprint Granules are  clear, model to required area of Imprint Therapeutic Shoe;  then either continue to apply the Imprint Structural Adhesive and fit to foot, or if the material is beginning to film over, reheat before going on to the next stage.

Extensions  where-ever required: Experience has

shown  that  if  dealing  with  a  contracted  foot e.g.4 1/2”

wide that ideally should be 5” wide; to create bi-lateral

symmetry; it is better to fit a pair of 5” Imprint Therapeutic Shoes and using softened Imprint Granules, fill the gap

between the contracted foot and the edge of the shoe,

Imprint Granules

rather than fitting a 4 1/2” shoe and adding extensions on to the outside. When in corpora ting extensions more indents may be required in that area. Blend extension to foot to reduce shoe loss risk.

Graduation to Imprint Therapeutic Shoes: To attain the required angle add the heated Imprint Granules to the foot bearing surface of the heated Imprint Therapeutic Shoe to the required depth then proceed.

Similarly to make up for voids and undulations in the hoof: Add the required amount of Imprint Granules to the corresponding part of the Imprint Therapeutic Shoe, and then proceed to the next stage.

Extensions to Imprint Therapeutic Shoes already fitted to the foot: If an extension or graduation is required after fitting, the use of a heat gun will soften the Imprint  Shoe, then preheated Imprint Granules may be added to create the desired effect.
