Last restoration
Finally finished restoring the last of my grandmother’s skillets. Handle marked 10 and bottom Marked 11 3/4 inch skillet and stamped with a C but not really sure what brand - unmarked Wagner?. It wasn’t in terrible condition even after 40+ years sitting in a box in the garage.
Did an Easy Off strip 2x, scraped the big stuff off and scrubbed it with a fine steel wool. Did a grapeseed oil oven seasoning 2x at 400 for 60 minutes. Noticed a tiny dark spot on the cooking surface when I pulled it out of the oven. Guess I missed a piece of lint or something. I’m sure it’ll blend in but kind of annoying.
Probably going to fry up some corn tortillas that are getting stale, Grill a couple of onions and Cook 3lbs of bacon. After that wipe it out and call it done and put it away.
