Thanks! Is pine tar considered an oil? Does it saponify?

I found pine tar at a local amish shop where they sell/repair boots and leather stuffs and it was like a quart or more can in with the horse care products. HTH!

Your local county coop should have it, or any equine supplies store. It's actually used on hooves.

I was just reading about that online and I THINK there is an equine-type shop down the road from me! I'm not quite in horse-country, but close. I've never been in that store, so I'm not positive it's an equine store but it looks like it should be. I'll try it! Thanks everyone!

It does have a saponification value that can be found in the soap calculator. However, I use mine for superfatting. I have read that in order for it to be most beneficial it should be added at 20%. I do that on top of my regular recipe.....but I think it smells horrible.
