like mr. Mystery said, try to make it perfect in the mix than in the master, it's always better in the end 
mastering should generally only include two things:
minimal EQing: if you find yourself cranking up the values on the EQ more then around one db, then go back to mixingstage and redoo it
maximizing: the mainpart of mastering, this includes multibandcompressing the track both before and after the EQ-stage and then putting a good limiter on it in the end of the chain (at least that's how I doo it)
good tools for mastering, well it depends on what you like to use...
In my opinion all you need is wavelab & waves mastersbundle (that's all I use and it works perfect for me) 
apart frmo that all you need is experience
