AMA about cast iron and carbon steel pans

I'm a magic 8 ball of pithy sayings

/mtg

i never know what level of heat, what towel (paper towel leaves fuzz), amount of oil, and time to use when seasoning after i clean the pan. would prefer to not have to use an oven

I use cotton towels and buzzywax to season my pans: https://a.co/d/6Vr8Pe2

The instructions are on the can: warm to 200, apply wax, bake at 500

You can do this on a stovetop too, but i'd suggest getting an infrared thermometer to measure pan temp:

Warm, apply wax, raise stove temp and warm again until the pan smokes and then stops smoking
