Blu-Kote is known for providing a visible antiseptic barrier and long-lasting protective coating, particularly valued in larger-animal and equine wound management where coverage and persistence matter. In comparison to the other products here, its standout financial and technical advantages are durability and ease of monitoring (the dye makes treated areas obvious), though it can stain and may be less appropriate for delicate poultry or small-pet skin than gentler sprays or gels.
