For a small amount of spot rust: Wash your grill with warm, soapy water and a scrub brush, dry promptly with a lint-free cloth or paper towel, and rub with oil. If that doesn’t work, use the Lodge Rust Eraser first, followed by the above cleaning steps. For a large amount of rust: 1. Scour the surface with warm, soapy water and a metal scouring pad. It’s okay to use the scouring pad and soap since you are preparing to re-season the cookware. Rinse and hand dry thoroughly. 2. Apply a very thin, even layer of cooking oil to the cookware (inside and out). Keep in mind if you use too much oil, your cookware may become sticky. 3. Place the cookware in the oven upside down on the top rack and place aluminum foil on the bottom rack to catch any excess oil. Bake at 450-500° F for one hour. Allow to cool and repeat as necessary to achieve the classic black patina. Learn more Can I soak my cast iron? Soaking cast iron in water is a recipe for rust.
