    The thing that works best for cleaning/polishing the soil probe is a Scotch Brite pad, like the one that comes attached to one side of many cellulose dish-washing sponges.  It is easier to use if you just get the Scotch Brite sans sponge.  The best time to take your readings is right after a soaking rainfall or, like I do, I use distilled water to saturate the soil before I test mine.
