Every time I think I've found a place that sells ground/polished cast iron, it falls through! Just found a new one, go to the website, and the dude that was doing it got a new job and isn't doing the polishing anymore. :-) [Reply]
That's a good price. I hate those grill pans, though.
I'm about done buying new cast iron. I hate that the manufacturing process is giving us rough as hell surfaces. They're not even trying anymore to make them smooth. My own collection is pretty good, any new pieces I get will probably be eBay specials and need a little TLC. [Reply]

I'm curious as to what he was charging? It's a lot of work. [Reply]

That sounds about right, easily 2 to 3 hours of work and a huge mess. [Reply]

Honestly, with my health issues, the idea of doing it myself terrifies me. [Reply]

I wonder if a palm sander would do the job?
This is your man, I used both, sign him up. [Reply]
You know just thinking here if you have an air compressor an auto body DA type orbital sander would make short work of this. Harbor Freight has a cheap DA that would get ya through your pans before failing. Money in the bank. [Reply]
