Builders who use concreting tools such as a Rose trowel, bull float or shovel could benefit from finding a product that is easy to clean.

According to Emily Patterson of eHow, it is not always easy to keep concrete tools spick and span while they are in use.

However, builders can clean dried concrete from their equipment afterwards, possibly using concrete dissolver, a scrub brush and garden hose with jet sprayer.

Ms Patterson recommended that once you have cleaned your concrete tools, you make sure they have dried properly to prevent rust.

But these methods can only be used if the products are strong enough to withstand manual cleaning and regular usage.

As a result, it could be a good idea to opt for more established brands such as W Rose when purchasing your equipment.

This could potentially cut costs in the long run and maximise the lifespan of your concrete tools.
