Top Cast Iron Care and Maintenance Tools on Amazon
There is one answer to this question and that’s to throw a ton of soap in it and soak it in water for hours. Just kidding. Terrible joke. If you use soap or soak in water you should probably never cook again.

Lodge Seasoned Cast Iron Care Kit
This is a one-stop shop for everything you need to maintain your cast iron in a package made by Lodge. It includes a sprayer of canola oil, a polycarbonate scraper, a silicone pan handle holder, and a nylon bristle brush. The scraper and brush are perfect where they will scrape off any leftover gunk from dinner but not ruin your seasoning.
Chainmail Scrubber
Sometimes things are a bit too much caked on and you need more than a scraper or brush. Chainmail scrubbers are your next best bet. Any chainmail scrubber will work but I personally recommend using one with silicone in the middle to avoid burning your hands if your pan is still hot!
Seasoning Oil Applicator
Okay, that was way too fancy of a term but I thought it was cool. These bandanas are perfect for seasoning your pan because they are lint-free. It’s important to season with a lint-free cloth so you don’t get any lint baked into your pan like you can with paper towels.
Rust Eraser
So either something good or something bad happened. maybe you found an antique cast iron from an estate sale that was rusted through and you’re excited to nurse your pan back to health! Or, possibly you left some water and didn’t dry it out completely and now your pan has some rust. The beauty of cast iron is it is always fixable no matter what you do to it. While putting a bit of elbow grease is just fine this rust eraser from Lodge will make your life much easier to bring your cast iron back to perfection!
