Cleaning Garden Tools

I will be off to find the following supplies to create my own "Garden Tool Cleaning Center."

Small bristle brush:

Brush off dirt that has stuck to the Garden Tool.

Bucket of sand with motor oil mixed in:

Plunging spades and other like tools in and out of the sand after use will keep the excess dirt off and a thin sheen of oil will preserve the tools.

Rubbing Alcohol & Motor Oil on a rag kept in a plastic Ziploc bag:

Clean pruners with alcohol after use. Wipe off bypass pruners with the oily rag before putting pruners away. This will keep them from rusting.
