How To Remove Hardened Grass Clippings From Lawn Mower Blades FARM HOME Lawn Mowers (31h,38) 33-6-36 John Benoit, Bourbonnais, Ill.: "FARM SHOW recently published a story on how to remove rust using a solution of washing soda (like Arm & Hammer) and water. I've found this method also works for removing hardened grass clippings from lawn mower blades. "I mix one cup of soda with 5 gal. of warm water in a square plastic tub. I let the blade soak overnight. The next day I use a wire brush on the clippings and they come right off. Then I sharpen the blades and coat them with vegetable oil to keep grass from building up again."
