chadlanthier Posted January 30, 2016 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 My tools r definitely in need of a good cleaning. I entered a dewalt contest showing picture of dewalt tools and got slammed about how clean my tools looked. People thought I bought them just for the picture and then returned them. Lately I've just been lazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was always taught take pride in your work and that includes keeping your tools clean and in 6 months their tools are broke because they didn't clean the drywall dust out of their sawmill and the shoe rusts and locks and they have to go buy a new one, karma bit them in the behind.

Keep them tools clean!Preach on Jimbo! I am the same way. I don't have a lot of tools or even the top of the line tools, but I take a lot of pride in keeping what I have nice. I clean them everytime I use them. Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stercorarius Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 My power tools just get wiped down to where there's no residue that will rub off and get a light oil on all metal parts. My hand tools vet shined clean with whatever is convenient and also get a light oil all over. In my line of work if you can only smell the cow shit and not see it you're ahead of the game.

KnarlyCarl Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 If someone owns a tool for 10 years and it still looks brand new, no dings, no scratches, no lost paint, and perfectly clean, it just tells me one thing, they never used the tool.A knight in shining armor is a man who never had his metal testedSent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
