After a lot of elbow grease the deep dish pizza pan is clean and rust free. It was absolutely filthy but for $2.50 and the sake of saving something from a landfill, I don't mind putting in the work. I will probably have to season it but since I don't know where it's been, I would rather start from scratch. #reuse #restore #recycle #thrift
@LilPecan I wanna know how?? I might have some pans that are starting to look dingy
@farah I swear by Bar Keepers Friend Cleanser. Not the stuff that says it's for pots and pans but the basic cleanser. It's cheap! You can use it with a scrubby. If it's really bad, use it with a steel wool pad. One of my favourite restorations is using it on blackened copper clad Revere Ware. It's so satisfying when I'm done and those pots are expensive but I have a whole set now.
You don't have to attack it all at once. Do it 20 minutes at a time. It takes a lot of work but you get there.
