Your choice of cleaner sounds fine. I wrap my cast iron weight with aluminium foil before using. Dish washing liquid cleans it without any problems because it never gets greasy.

I hope you haven't done anything drastic to clean your cast iron, such as has been suggested in the previous responses. If the pan is something you'd regret damaging, the safest way to clean off burnt-on cooking residue as well as remove rust would be to place it in an electrolysis bath. The instructions are easy to find online, or just contact any group of cast iron aficionados, they'll be eager to guide you...and maybe even attempt to persuade you to part with your antique pan. Best of luck.

Its very simple. Every time you wash it make sure you dry it completely. It's happened to mine once. Just treat it like any other precious metal object. That's my baby.

If you are going to iron it, you should put a couple of pieces of fabric between it and the iron and use a light steam. I think I will do that too to get rid of the fold marks. Then instead of folding it, roll it over a paper towel roller.

No, I wouldn't iron it! Shake them out and just use it. They go away over time, not sure how long, exactly. Mine is smooth now.

I always put mine in a cup of soapy water and let it run for a minute, then rinsed and dried. It always seem to come clean. Hope this helps.

It needs to be cleaned, pull out your book or check on line for descalimg your machine. I use white vinegar and water two times to get cleaned.

When the need arises I will clean like I do my other irons. There are products made especially for this. As long as you follow the directions for use it should not need cleaning very often. It is the best iron I have used and I am a senior. Good luck.

Your not going to clean this properly, just clean it as best you can with hot water and alcohol, use it for a length of time & replace.

I haven't cleaned it. You would need to unscrew the front grid, but it doesn't look too difficult.

Purchase a tube of Faultless brank "Hot Iron Cleaner." Follow instructions and this should help.

I loved, loved, loved this iron. Right up to the point that the Clean message came on. I followed the instructions, but once I unplugged it after the Clean message appeared, it would never heat up again. I'm really bummed and totally on the fence as to whether to take it back and get another one or whether to get something else.

I cleaned mine on a warm sunny day with a soapy sponge. I hosed it down and it was dry by the end of the day and super clean. The console can be put in the washer

I assume you mean the screen. Not sure about that, I always wash in sudsy water with a bottle brush so that I can get everything out of the holes. It will seem rusty if you do not dry it right away.

My red light stays on all the time; it seems to just indicate that the iron is plugged in to a powered outlet. The backlight on the display is the indication on the on/off status of the iron. I have not notice Jamie's problem with the iron shutting off after 10 minutes - but admittedly I do not iron more that a couple of items at a time. Seems like you could turn it back on just by pressing the button under the display rather than unplugging and plugging.

I don't clean it. I just replace when beyond its usability. They are cheap enough to toss and buy a new one. For reference , the last cloth I had lasted about 5 years.
