Revise procedure for getting clean and tidy (5-2)

I believe the answer is:

brush-up

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'revise procedure for' is the definition.
'brush up' can be an answer for 'revise'. I am not sure about the 'procedure for' bit.

'clean and tidy' is the wordplay.
'clean' becomes 'brush' (brushing is a kind of cleaning).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'tidy' becomes 'up' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'brush'+'up'='BRUSH-UP'

'getting' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
