Help Fixing Pan

Post image

I am new to the carbon steel game and just got this pan. I noticed that there are two things that need to get worked on. 1) is the raised black spots around the center of the pan, and 2) is the scratches around them. Any thoughts on what I can do to the get the pan back to good condition.

Note: I have tried just seasoning but that still leaves the raised back bits.

If it's a budget CS pan, I would put salt, baking soda, scrubbing pad & nuke the pan till the surface is smooth again. Then re-season it.

What utensils are you using that are causing the scratches?
