If your old pan needs to be rejuvenated use a little olive oil and a synthetic wool pad. It takes some elbow grease if your pan is really nasty/rusty, but it gets the pan back to where it can be seasoned.

Seasoning is simple. Some oil and heat... repeat a few of times. Those instructions can be Googled.
Did you read the post I made? The guys at Cook's Illustrated actually recommend it before doing the flaxseed seasoning. Those guys know their shit and are famously well-researched and practiced.

I'm going to give it a try. My fvorite cast iron skillet is in need and with cold weather upon us it is time to turn my eyes toward indoor cooking.

Still skeptical, but trusting in FMB and Cooks Illustrated.

FMB is pretty passionate about cooking, I think his advice is sound as well. Oven cleaner is designed for high heat surfaces, so it does make sense.

Take pics of the process, if you think about it.

I'm going to try it, as well, probably in December between a business trip and Christmas.

They admit they know nothing about non-Yankee cooking. Hell, they add liquid smoke to recipes. Did you see the episode where they were trying to smoke a pork butt? Ridiculous.

Okay, the project is underway. Attached are four pics:

1. The pan starting out.
2. The pan after 30 minutes of easy off and being scrubbed out with hot soapy water.
3. The pan after being in a 200 degree oven for 15 minutes.
4. The pan after the flaxseed oil coating, right before going into the oven.

It is in the oven now, will report back later on tonight how the first coat went!

Very light coat of Flaxseed oil, and the oil is not very dark. Will see how it turns out after the oven.
