    The tang-end of a sawzall blade works well, too.

    Compressed air to blow off most of it. Purple power to spray the really dirty parts and wipe it down. Key part it doing it often.

    I use oil off for the oiliest, dirtiest parts. Seems to work well for me.

    I keep a hacksaw blade in the saw box for bar grooves.
