[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 1032145, member: 6897"] [b]You want his skin wet...very wet...soaked and with moving air.[/b] "Misting" is what causes the tiny beadlets of water to accumulate on the hair and hot even touch the skin. This makes the insulation blanket that actually heats an animal. If you can't soak him at least use a system with larger beads of water rather than mist. Even 100 degree air feels cool rushing over your skin at 70 mph if you're soaked. [/QUOTE]
