The best way to remove rust from your garden tools is to use a combination of sandpaper, steel wool, and baking soda. Start by using sandpaper to remove the surface rust, then apply a layer of steel wool and let it sit for about 10 minutes before rinsing with water. After that, apply a paste made of equal parts baking soda and water and rub it into the rusted areas until they are completely removed. Finally, dry the tools off thoroughly with a soft cloth or paper towel before storing them away in a dry place.
