How to remove dried concrete from tools?Although removing dried concrete from tools can be difficult, doing so is necessary to keep them functional. Start by scrubbing away any extra concrete with a wire brush. If the concrete is hard to remove, soak the tools in water until it becomes pliable and then use a chisel or brush to scrape it off. Metal tools can be kept from accumulating lots of dried concrete by routinely cleaning, oiling or greasing them. Maintaining your concrete tooling properly can guarantee it remains functional for years to come.
