Smithey Ironware Care Kit

No, the chainmail scrubber is designed specifically to lift burnt-on food residue without stripping away the polymerized seasoning layer you have worked hard to build. It is gentle enough to preserve the surface while being effective on stubborn debris.

Yes, this seasoning blend is formulated for any cast iron or carbon steel cookware. It works effectively to restore and protect the surface of any brand of seasoned metal pan.

You should apply the oil blend whenever your pan looks dry, dull, or starts to lose its non-stick properties. A light application after cleaning and drying your cookware is usually sufficient to maintain a healthy, rust-resistant finish.

The addition of beeswax creates a more durable, protective barrier on the metal surface compared to standard cooking oils alone. It helps seal the seasoning, providing better rust resistance and a smoother, more consistent non-stick finish over time.

The stainless steel scrubber is very low maintenance. Simply rinse it thoroughly with warm water after use to remove any food particles and let it air dry completely before storing it to ensure it stays clean and rust-free.
