I'm glad you're keeping it, it's a gorgeous piece, beautifully restored.
Lye bath for as long as needed for gunk/carbon buildup first. Can stay in lye for weeks or months. I usually leave in for at least three days fully submerged to avoid a line on the finished piece. Clean and return to lye bath if needed. That pan didn't have much gunk at all. Then 50:50 vinegar water bath fully submerged for no more than 30 minutes at a time unless you want to etch your iron. Fantastic job sir! Looks great.
That happen to me with a pancake-griddle. Rats! it was a grimy nice 80's piece. :(
THANK YOU! I needed to find your skill and tips to save my cast iron pan with cactus moulds for making cornbread. I have had it 30 years and tried to restore it, so thank you for your great instructions. Your demo piece is beautiful... but was hoping the final wind-up would be pulling it out of the oven with cornbread, or shortcake or some kind of baked treat. The animal kingdom design was pretty -- would love to have seen it baked up into something yummy.
Yes, I should have made some animal cookies.
A video of cooking something in that pan would be so much fun to see how well the baked goods come out of that beautifully restored and seasoned pan, also the clean up done after each use to keep it so nice.
Simply great information I know this video is 2 years old but it is nice to look back from time to time.
GOOD JOB YOUNG MAN!!
Thank you so very much.
I wish i would have seen this many years ago. I gave away some cast iron corn cob pans that were my great grandma's. They were rusted and could have used some love. Great video thanks.
Vinegar works just great as long as you don't have those ugly black carbonized warts on your like you will see on skillets! I've used vinegar many times to remove rust and those warts, but I've soaked it a bit longer (try 2 days!) without damaging the pan. I think that electrolysis will work better for those warts, but vinegar is fine for rust. I use Dawn soap as well to clean pieces I am restoring. I haven't tried hot water, but may try it and see how it works. I use Pam spray to coat my pieces until I can do a real seasoning to prevent rust. Grape seed oil works as well, I just happen to have Pam on hand. I love that piece - very interesting. Great job on that piece. Looks great!
Thank you. I was going to pass this piece along but I decided to keep it because it was very interesting. John Wright pans or really neat but they are hard to restore.
Great video, would like to see you do a skillet next :) I am interested in vinegar bath I learned a lot thanks
Evelyn, you are so very welcome and I will try to do a pan as soon as I pick up a rusty one.
So excited for this! Saw this thumbnail and just happened to come across the exact same piece in our local goodwill
I had some issues with the video and there is a little bit of a buzz in the background. The piece turned out great though.
This was sold b LL BEAN about 30 years ago.
Thank you for another GREAT video! Combine the vinegar and buzzy wax "oil" and you might have the makings of a DELICOUS salad dressing! LOL 😀🤣😅
Just bought a rusty cornbread skillet, it looks like it will be worth restoring. It's a 6 slice pat. pending, I believe the first of it's type, from around 1967 or 68. I was born in 1967 so that seems pretty cool.
You are correct about the date.
I use cast iron skillets and pans,that were my great grandmother's, then on on then I got.them, I really like this .thanks great ideas
Good job! The piece turned out beautiful. I would keep it after all that.
That's absolutely beautiful piece love it
Great information! Beautiful pan!
Now that it’s clean, I can see the animals...A beautiful piece!!
Channel is very informative thank you I love taking old cast iron pieces and restoring them my prize possession is an 1860 Stewart wood fire/coal range rescued from a camp in Bolton Landing my great great grandmother cooked on I'm going to be restoring it back to its original state which means wood and coal I'm not going to outfit with natural gas it's a beauty
You should put like a dish towel at the bottom of the sink so it doesn't get all scratched up
Thanks for the video. Beautiful!
I'd love to see something cooked in there. I'm really curious about how it would turn out and what you could make with it. Maybe pancakes.
Cornbread is a good thing to make in pans like that, too. They have pans shaped like corn cobs specifically for it. They're super cute!
Found out if you have a metal pan and can warm the pan and vinegar it works way better and faster. Really goes to bubbling and you can tell quick it's doing it's thing. Warm or lightly hot, just enough to see a little steam coming off the vinegar.
I will be giving that a try.
@@castIroncookware I did two just last weekend. Way worse than what you had here. Been cooking on them all week. Seems heat is the trick.
I want that, and I wanted you to name all the animals. Is it for cookies, corn bread or bread or scones? Whducallit? I would love a Christmas one, with Santas, reindeer, wreaths, bells, snowman, gingerbread man, tree, stars , does a Christmas one exist?
I think that it is mostly for cookies but I can be wrong. I have seen quite a few Christmas style pieces.
That was really nice of your wife to let you use her toothbrush. lol
Dawn and Dr. BRONNER hemp soap will clean in a spray bottle with water, rinse well, dry well. Re-season
That piece looks like more of a challenge than something like a skillet with having all those nooks and crannies.
Yes. I go through quite a few Q-Tips on those kind of pieces.
What a great peice!
Thank you so much I got a corn muffin Pan and I wasn't sure how to get down in the groose the brush is a great idea! I love your videos they're so informative and you really know your stuff.
You are welcome and thank you for watching.
Thanks
Thanks, as always, fer yer vidyas...
I have WAY too much Cast Iron fer any one man, an constantly browse fer more lol! :-)
There is always room for one more. Lol
Thanks very much sir!
That is a beautiful piece but I wouldn’t be able to resist using it just once even
That's a pretty piece
Hey Stephen. I have been concerned about you with the tornados. Are you OK.
Yes, I live in the northern part of Alabama. Thank for your concern though. It is really sad what has happened farther south of me. A lot of people have suffered terrible loss down there.
Whew, made it in time :)
!!!
I'm not going to be afraid of rusty pieces at sales anymore !
Awesome!
oil in a spray bottle. genius.
Thank you for this. Just found a Wright dino muffin pan. Don't think it was seasoned and was used.
What strength of vinegar do u use,like I have 5 % .that's not real strong,
5% is what I use. It does not take a strong solution.
Thank you! Very well explained. 500o for an hour doesn't it warp and why so hot.
It has a lot to do with a particular oil that your using. You have to get above the smoke point. I use grapeseed oil that has a smoke point out 420ﾟ. It will work fine at 450ﾟ but I like to go a little over. As long as you are heating evenly, you will not have any issues until you get to over 650ﾟ.
Yeah that's a keeper. Very cool!
I haven't made any cookies in it yet but I plan too.
@@castIroncookware I like cookies... Maybe too much.
@@craftsman673 me too
I'm learning a lot from watching your videos, thank you for the knowledge. Do I have to use cloth or cotton to soak up the excess oil? Can I use a sponge?
It all will work. Paper towels will work too.
How do you remove authomotive oil from an iron pot? Thanks in advance!
A thorough scrubbing with dish soap should work but if not a lye bath may be necessary.
You added water to the vinegar for 50/50 ? What strength vinegar do you use ?
Nice one
Will a vinegar bath hurt my nickel (or chrome) plated Griswald #8 chicken pan? The sides are mirror like and spotless, but the inside bottom has some worn away places from my grandmothers use. It has a slight rust colored tinge to about 1/4 of the bottom and then the rest is black with one spot of silver where she stirred the hardest. It still has a smooth as glass surface and is perfectly flat. The lid is also spotless. I don’t want to ruin it, but I would love to restore it to its original glory. What do you recommend?
I would probably not use vinegar on plated pieces. I've heard of a lot of people using Bar Keepers Friend with success. The cooking surface of the pan can be cleaned with coarse salt, a little bit of water and some elbow grease. You might be able to use a vinegar water solution and pour it in the pan up to the rim and let it sit for 20 minutes before you start the process of cleaning with salt. It sounds as though you have a great piece of cast-iron there. I will look into this deeper and try to have more information. Maybe I can put findings in my next cast-iron answers video.
Cast Iron Cookware I would greatly appreciate any further information you can find. I’ve searched UA-cam for information and have not been successful. I will wait for awhile in hopes you can give me a more definitive answer. Thank you so much in advance, and yes, when I found this pan and her hand written cookbook amongst her things when she passed, I knew that I would be able to continue our family traditions and be able to pass them on to many more generations to come provided that I can take excellent care of this coveted pan.
@@hollym.3599 I will definitely look into this deeper and gather as much information as I possibly can. I've had to hold up on producing videos because of my computer issues but I should be picking up a new one today. Hopefully I will have a cast-iron answers video coming out next week and I will include the information I find on plated pieces in that video.
Cast Iron Cookware excellent! I look forward to it. Thank you.
That is a cool pan. 😎👍👍👍
Am sure the rubbing and scrub could have been done in a container with water instead of having run the water
Have you never seen how canola oil is made. With chemicals.
Yes, and it is a little bit scary.
Love that little pan so much detail it is beautiful. What would you cook in that? ☺love your videos 👍👍hello from Louisiana,thanks for sharing
I think cookies would be great. Real homemade animal cookies. LOL
I was wondering the same thing. I've never had fun-shaped cornbread before. Lol
Made it look easy!?
It was not much work at all.
If doing multiple PC's would a pressure washer work in place of scrubbing?
I would not think there would be enough pressure to remove the seasoning or rust. I definitely would avoid using any kind of media blasting. There is too much potential for damaging the cast irons surface.
So i a kinda confused on which process deals with which issue. Lye takes the old seasoning off only, but not the rust? Vinegar or electolosys takes off the rust?
A Lye bath or Easy Off only removes organic (Old Seasoning) and Vinegar only removes rust. An Electrolysis system will remove both at the same time. I hope this helps.
Is that a clock made from a cast iron pan?
It is a piece that was made by the foundry of the shoals. I think they gave them out one year as Christmas gifts to their employees. They had different types of casting items that they gave as gifts for other years.
Will this method work with like red stick pans that a restaurant like fazoli's or that other place would use to make their breadstick pans come back to restoring like they had just recently bought them to their original form just out of curiosity Olive garden too
Would love to know what animals those were and what food looks like when cooked in it.
I think that homemade animal cookies/crackers would be great to make with it.
Do you think using hot water + vinegar might make it more effective?
Yes. Most chemicals do work better when the temperature increases.
Cool 👍👍
Thank you for the info .Is that cast sink?
I think that it is some kind of polystone.
Also we pick up a partical painted skillet is there a wayvto nzkevthis pan useable again?
The paint can be stripped but I would do a lead test before using. Especially if it was painted during the era of lead paint.
Is grapeseed oil ok for all 3 applications since thats what I have on hand other than lard and crisco and vegetable oil and pam spray. I notived you refer to grapeseed oil a few times
Grapeseed oil is my preferred stand alone seasoning oil. I currently use a grapeseed bases blend that I personally developed. Easy Beezy Cast Iron Seasoning. easybeezy.com
Yes I have seen your product. I seen your video on the griddle restore. I have questioned you in my gifted used Blackstone and you said the seasoning just needed to be stripped and you used your wax seasoning stick. Thank you again sir. Great videos. Full of information
3 times at 500 degrees..how long did you let it sit before you did another coat???
You can let them cool all the way down before starting a new round but I usually apply the next coat as soon as it cools down enough for me to handle. Somewhere around 200 to 250 degrees.
I am a recent subscriber Steven and from my understanding I have a no. B.S.R,made in usa with the lid! My question is under the lid handle, it's stamped 8 B X. What does BX stand for? Thanks
The Lid sounds like a BSR Red Mountain Series. The BX is a mold designation.
What kind of wax do you use to re-cure and where does one buy it? Thanks. About to begin a huge restoration job.
I use Easy Beezy Cast Iron Seasoning. It is a product that I make myself and it is available at easybeezy.com
Is that what you call Buzzy wax?
By the way, what’s Buzzy Wax? Where can we buy it?
I have since made the move to Easy Beezy cast iron seasoning. It is a product that I developed. You can find it at cicookware.com
WHAT is buzzywax?
It is a seasoning product that I used to use before I developed my own personal blend. Easy Beezy cast iron seasoning.
If you use a acid for rust you need to use a base to neutralize it or it can continue eating the metal long after cleaning the rust off
A good thorough scrubbing with soap and water will remove and dilute it.
Know what I’m gonna do? I’m gonna use the Vinegar bath & I bet a nice Dremel Tool with a hard bristle brush will help. I’m no expert; I’m very new at this, but can you use a wire brush or is that a bad idea💡 ?
I would stay away from wire and use a hard plastic one.
@@castIroncookware Thanks 🙏
I'm seeing videos stating that coke cola will get rid of rust, now I'm hearing vinegar
Which is better?????
Vinegar is better without the added sugar. Lol
Bon amis will restore your enameled sink of those cast iron scratches
I think that it is poly-stone but hoping to restore the whole kitchen.
What is buzzy wax?
That was a product that I used to indorse before I formulated my own seasoning blend. Easy Beezy Cast Iron Seasoning.
What is "buzzy wax???
That was a seasoning product that I used to use. I now only use Easy Beezy Cast Iron Seasoning.
You have a slightly older Nicholas Cage thing going on there...
How do you just spot clean small rust spots?
You can give it a scrub with salt and a little bit of water.
My granny used to build a hot hot hot roaring fire throw her cast iron into the fire put more wood on top and make it hot hot hot then she would go back when the fire was burned out take the pieces to the stove and reseason.
There are a lot of people still using that method but there is still a lot of potential danger in damaging the pieces that way.
Oops, I did a straight vinegar base 😳 but it doesn't look to be pitted or damaged afterward 🤞
You can use straight vinegar at short periods of time. you just have to be more careful. Most vinegar you will find is at 5% acidity.
👍👍💜🙏
You are not protecting your sink!!! :)
I have finally gotten a sink in my shop. That has really helped a lot.
not so good - iron will absorb the soap
The soap will completely rinse away. The reason why the old timer didn't use soap was because most soap from that era contained lye and it would strip away the seasoning. Modern dish soap is much more gentle.
