There was some interest in my ISO post about restoring these crusty old pieces. I use a lye tank to strip the old seasoning and oil out of them, 1lb of lye per 5 gallons of water is the recipe I’ve found online. More lye can make it work a little faster. Here’s a couple pieces that will be in the lye bath that I just cleaned out and re filled. One thing to note is Lye will not remove the rust. It will just strip the seasoning and oil. To remove the rust I will use a mix of 50/50 water and vinegar with a scrubbing brush. I’ll post some progress as they come along. Hopefully to I’ll have some time to pull them and check out the progress.
