How to Restore a Wheelbarrow

What is the wheelbarrow’s current condition? If it’s not rusted through, you are in luck! You can restore it to near new condition. 

You will need: rust preventative spray paint, boiled linseed oil, sandpaper (coarse grit and medium grit), axle grease, steel brush, socket set and or wrenches. If needed, purchase replacement handles, wheel or bolts from the local home improvement store. If you want to upgrade to a flat-free tire, now is the time.

Thoroughly clean the tray to prepare it for paint. Remove loose rust with a steel brush. Wipe off any residue or dust with a damp rag.

Disassemble the old wheelbarrow.
