How to clean garden tools

Your tools work hard — pruning, digging, weeding — and they deserve a little TLC in return. Keep them sharp, shiny and rust-free with a quick Koh clean that tackles dirt without soaking the whole tool.

Step-by-step guide

Step 1
Give your tools a quick brush to remove loose dirt and debris.

Step 2
Spray Universal Cleaner directly onto the blades or handles — no need to soak.

Step 3
Let it sit for a minute or two; the formula binds with organic gunk to loosen it up.

Step 4
Use the non-scratch scrubby corner of your General Cloth to work off any stuck-on bits.

Step 5
Wipe clean with your cloth, working away any residue.

 

Pro tip

After cleaning, lightly oil metal parts to keep them rust-resistant and ready for your next backyard battle.

 

Safety note: Never leave tools submerged in water — it speeds up rusting. Universal Cleaner does the job without the soak.
