Does anyone has any suggestion on how to get rust off of garden tools? Any ideas would be appreciated!
Thanks, Karin |

fine grade steele wool and light weight oil, oil tools down and polish with steele wool, keep a thin film on tools during off season, and during on season , make sure if they get wet, to dry them off.

I keep a 5 gal bucket of sand with old motor oil in it. It is just inside my shop door. When I bring in a hoe or shovel, I shove it down in the sand. The sand cleans the blade and the oil keeps it from rusting. Works for me.
