DO NOT renew this. Those stains mean something more than a fresh coat of paint.

Do whatever you want, OP. There's nothing wrong with cleaning this up with a fresh coat of paint. I'm guessing the inside looks as dirty as the outside, and personally I wouldn't store my tools in something that dirty when I could just as easily clean it up. Also, it does appear that there's rust starting to creep in at the seams. Better to nip that in the bud before it spreads.
