Yo Charlie.... 4-5" angle grinder with stone blade works really well on the shovel. On the trowels use a rough sandy brick with some sand or a concrete block, if not too bult up with muck then a wire brush may be suffice. With the levels absolutely the brick acid as no rust and gets into the cracks. Love your vids bro, keep up the good work and keep up the spirit of play as this is how it should be at work! Keep the banter alive 🤪👏💪✌👊💥👍
You can get dronco 4 inch rust removal blades for your grinder. That takes rust, mortar, concrete and abrasions of trowels and shovels leaving them super shiny.
A steel wire cone attachment on an angle 115mm grinder is the best lb for lb. Silverline one off amazon was £3 when i bought it with the tightly wound steel wires. Silverline 868901 is the product code. £5.50 for the 65mm version which i use on trowels and shovels. Hope that helps. Thumbs up.
Takes a few seconds to clean your trowel or shovel with a stiff brush & a rag before the gobbo sets, no excuse for letting them get in that state. Ever.
Charlie I've used an empty 25ltr drum and cut in half length ways so end up with basin and ideal for putting in a shovel and trowels at same time and can lie them flat Leave overnight will only require a brush and wash off .
Hi Charlie game changing tip for us brickie fresh pineapple rubbed on cement stained blue bricks and reds no matter how old the stain removes it instantly and for stubborn stains a light rub with sandpaper 👍👍
What do you do with the waste acid? Boiled linseed for tool handles. P.S. any chance of video on how to keep mixer clean. I used to keep a pot of flints for that, and strain them out for reuse on emptying. And agree with below get a pointy ended shovel with round corners for shovelling hard stuff - got an American one of those as we don't seem to have.
It’s a haultafors T600. German brand hammer a have there super sharp and have a really nice grip far better than the poor grips on the estwings. Anti vibe haultafors hammer. Vaughan do top hammers also nice gel soft grip handles.
@@jayh6293 They are super sharp and are anti vibe that all hammers should be which they aren’t also have a nail puller which is handy if on kits. £40 bucks for the hammer
@@harveysmith100 Yeah mate realised while back thought it sounded German haha real good hammer holds up great grip it top notch unlinked poor grips on estwings.
@@lmilne4859 Just dumped my Estwing, always hated it. I had a beautiful wooden handled Vaughan Bon, hard to find the made in USA now. It was stolen so tried the Estwing. Finally found the Vaughan Bon on Amazon USA and imported it. Just the best in my opinion. Not seen a Hultafors brick hammer but everything they make is top notch. They do a lovely insulation knife, about £12. really good.
@@harveysmith100 A have a Vaughan 3lb club hammer there soft gel type grips are in matched a think. Also have a 18oz Vaughan brick hammer again the gel type grip but had for 3 years not used got a bit lighter for a brittle type brick now a don’t want scratch lol think it’s still lying under the van seat lol. 🤟🤟
Wire brush in a 4-1/2" angle grinder works amazing for tools caked up with hard darbo. Doesn't make them black and rusty like the acid too.
Have started using a flap disc on my cordless angle grinder . Trowel comes up lovely.

Come on Charlie, you have been doing this long enough now, get a little extendable tripod with phone clip.

the wire cup is the bollox on heavily soiled tools!
back in the seventies, If I let a shovel get like that, I'd have two black eyes and the price of a shovel knocked off me money on friday

Just keep them clean! Then oily rag Save all that grief💭

Now they look beautiful!! Olive oil is the way forward by the looks of it👍🏽👏🏼
A old school tradesman was taught to always clean his tools at the end of the day.
i would recommend that you boiled linseed oil your wooden handle on your trowel, helps it last alot longer
Wd40 for trowel. Keep a rag soaked in it wee hand towel. In bucket or box wipe off end of day keeps trowel slick.
hand size piece of thermolite block. clean them every night or in the morning
Bit of a ryarsh sp cleans a trowel up a treat but hey ho we're all guilty of fucking off home when it pisses down.
What’s happened to the spears and Jackson’s wooden handle trowel?
Hi Charlie game changing tip for us brickie fresh pineapple rubbed on cement stained blue bricks and reds no matter how old the stain removes it instantly and for stubborn stains a light rub with sandpaper 👍👍
off to order 500 pineapples ..... ;
After clean. Heat up the shovel and rub burned linseed oil on it. Good job
How may times have you lads put acid on your tools and touched your face on the way home and feel a slight burn on your chin?
A brick rub is me go too
Or a grinder with a flap disc very fast

Needle scaller....is a handy yoke
Really enjoyed that video.
Charlie have you tried the Belle Clean spray? It works well on standard concrete and cement mortar. SBR mortar and its not so keen to work!
Hey mate what's ya wooden handle trowel? Looks like a nice shape blade
I would of stuck the grinder on the shovel first to get the bulk of the cement off and then brick acid and oil.
First whoop whoop 🙌
What was the plastic handled trowel mate?
Nice tips there thanks for sharing 👍👍🍺
Somebody just asked for this in your last video and here it is an hour later lol.
Is that a 11” wide London rose trowel @10.09
£600 a day. divided by 8 equals £75 hour.
cost of a new spade £20.
Buy a new spade
He ain’t bedding pansies!!!
New ones are awful. Old broken In and well used. Lighter, easier to clean over the years of use.

Hi what size trowel do you use?
Бро , пескоструйный аппарат тебе в помощь
Let your tools sit in vinegar for a weekend then you can scrape the mortar off with a brush….🤷
Just wash them off when you’ve finished using them
Never tried brick acid, I must inquire on cost , every thing I use is covered 🙄...
It used to be Hydrochloric acid full strength. Now I hope its diluted some.
Strongest iv found recently is 15%
