I just copped it for like 3 bucks at a yard sale, did I do good?

I sanded it down to bear metal and restarted the seasoning on it

Apparently bargain hunting and /diy/ self-sufficiency triggers homosexuals. You taught us all something today OP, you did good. I actually just picked up some steel wool because of a rust battle with my cast iron that I am losing. Wish I had a workshop and I really want to roast a goddamn chicken right now.

Retard. Go sand your pan like a retard.

I can't because the rust is too prevalent. Normal reseasoning methods no longer apply. I may have to switch to caustics if fine steel does not work. Course chain steal has already failed. All of this was written. The only thing I am retarded about is not thinking through my locale in relation to oxidization, also mentioned.

Why aren't you guys just using an overnight bath of lye (drain cleaner) mixed in water? Alternatively TSP works too.
Just be sure to have goggles, plastic apron, and thick rubber gloves. Also don't let the solution come in contact with aluminum.
The solution removes ALL seasoning and old grease.

I don't know, I imagine it would suck though. But yeah, I wasn't suggesting to wash with steel wool after every use, that's just for when it needs to be reseasoned. Try to pay attention to the reply chain next time.

Except
>reasoning them
is vastly different than building up seasoning over time.
Fuckers think that just oiling up there pan and blasting it with heat is gonna do anything for flavor, all it does is help things not stick. And if you let it season up over time, it's even more efficient for not letting things stick, and then you don't need to scrub it to high heavens.

>> No.11378979

>>11378956
What the fuck are you talking about? Never did I say not to build up seasoning. If a pan is in bad condition you clean it with steel wool and then season it with oil. After that you can build up the seasoning by cooking in it.

It's just a damn iron pan... whats there to argue about.

All it takes it some Easy Off overnite... and you get a brand new pan! Make sure you season it with organic butter, so that all your future dishes will have a hint of creamy goodness to it.
