What is better--these scrapers or the chain mail cast iron scrubbers?

I have read not to use metal products to clean the pans; the seasoning is a result of oils penetrating into the iron over time, metal scrubbers can scratch deep enough to expose unseasoned, bare iron, not good for the pan, like scratching teflon. Besides this product, I use a stiff brush or "scrubby" side of dual purpose kitchen sponges. Scrub while running hot water over the pan, wipe or heat (on the stove, on low)dry, thoroughly.

These scrapers did not work for me. Check w/somebody who gave it five stars

Garrett Hack has a video at Fine Woodworking where he extols the versatility of this tool. He shows it's use as a scrub plane and as a smoother as well as a jointer for short edges. He suggests having two irons, one straight and the other cambered. Actually he is using the Lie-Nielsen tool but the Stanley is functionally the same.

need another stamp and scraper, scraper can be used instead of no use to the plastic card)is better than the bundle monster I have not tried!

Not sure you received my earlier reply. I like the ceramic because it glides effortlessly and starch spray does not stick as much as it does with stainless soleplate. Just use a wet dish towel after using and run the iron over it and you will get years of service.

Works well. Increase dwell time from lacquer. Couple coats before scraping off. No water until end. Scraper, steel wool, then hot water and nylon brush, then pressure washer, then soap and water, then pressure washer. Faster the better when scrubbing off stripper. Commit to it otherwise you'll just have to do it twice. Oxalic acid if you get black spots.

Yes. The scraper beater is the best. It swipes the sides for you rather than you doing it with a scraper.

I can't find a model number. When I look on Amazon, the model number is listed as "cordless_ scrubber". I hope this helps.

probably not, the scraper is actually more rounded as it folds around the top and bottom. i get no scratches on my decks from this shovel. it is really big and cumbersome though, i wonder if a plow type shovel would better suit my needs? but this does the job.

Your going to have to get the one that has the scraper edge. This one is for just weekly cleaning.

Benriner is a much better qualify tool. It is easier to work with, easier to clean and store, and have a longer life.

Lodge is a very good brand of cast iron cook wear, cast iron heats more evenly and holds the heat longer, it does clean pretty easy even if the enamel does stain if you use tomatoes in it , which of course I do.

Generally, a scrub plane has a wide mouth and has a heavily cambered (curved) iron. While the mouth on this plane is adjustable, in order for it to function properly as a smoother the iron should only be cambered slightly, and some even recommend having no curve. A scrub plane is a rougher tool. In order to make this into a scrub plane it would basically loose its workability as a smooth plane. So I would not attempt to use this as a very heavy stock removal tool. Scrub planes are generally inexpensive, new or used. Another option is purchase a used Stanley Jack plane. If you only want to use it as a heavy stock removal tool, the Jack plane is a great option. Even an older, beat up jack will function great for rough prep wok, and it's heavier weight will work to your advantage. You can pick up a used Jack plane in good working condition for usually under $75 on ebay or from many tool dealers on the internet. This plane does a nice job as a smoother and for light stock removal, I wouldn't attempt to alter its function from that role. Hope this helps.

Yes. It's chain mail. It's kinda slinky and smooth but conforms to curves and grooves. I use it on the grills all the time. Both the stainless steel grill and the cast iron hibachi grill come clean easier with the Ringer than a brush. Of course don't clean your grill when it's hot or you'll burn yourself.

Only the scale slabs are ti. The rest is stainless they require a wipe down if they get wet. I have owned a Leatherman all my life and have never had any problems, your milage may very.

Check out Garrett Hack at FWW on this tool. He recommends two irons based on application. Buy the second one from Stanley.

The plastic Oxo works well, but I think the stainless version may be sharper, and cut more easily. I am going to try that one.

Hi, I bought the ones that are for the grill and it cleaned them great! Of course you may have to scruba little bit, but it works great.
