So my mom was visiting me for a while, and I left for a few days for work. I got back, and the STUPID COW used my cast iron, and fucked it up. She tried cooking eggs and potatoes in it, let it sit around, and then decided she would soak it to get everything unstuck, without oiling it afterward.

So now, my pan is flecked with bits of old burned egg, and has patches of rust coming through. I know it's fixable, but I've never re-seasoned anything that's in this kind of shape.

I guess I should just use sandpaper to get everything off? And then if I rinse all the crap off, wouldn't it just instantly create rust on the bare metal? Heeeeeeeeelp

Maybe switch to a type of pan that isn't so delicate and demanding of special care.

Pretty much this. Also be nice to your mom op. She is why you have the privilege of shitposting on 4chan instead of screaming with the other lost ghosts of aborted babies in the infinite interdimensional aether.

yup. steel wool, scrub until smooth, reseason whatever manner you usually do. I use flax oil.

OMG OP don't be such a whiny faggot. Just scrape the shit off, oil it up and use as normal.

Fucking special snowflake seasoning fags.
