Hey Mike, I would just use an OLD rag, that when your done can be tossed out.

Wet the rag really well, use reg soap and wipe the areas that are bad. If its really on there good just keep wetting the rag and wiping, it will soften and come off.

As far as getting sand out in a big cage, I bought a small dust pan and brush from the dollar store and kind of shovel it out with the pan, and you can use the brush to brush it into the pan also.

I would not worry about the sand under the huge rock for now, if they cant get under there than probably not that dirty.
And if they can get under, just wait until theres someone older there that could help another time

Glad your getting things straightened up!
