peeling on the outside or inside of the wok? Mine is still okay, this is an iron wok, shouldn't have a coating of any kind

If the wok comes with any special coating on it wash and scrub the coating off. This wil be the last time you wash your wok with soap. Preheat the oven while you wipe your wok down with oil, cooking oil will work fine. Then you place your oiled wok in the oven and let the oils seep into the wok as it bakes. Bake for about thirty minutes to an hour then let cool.

I peeled as much as off as I could by hand. Then I used Gojo (fast orange) to remove the residue and any remaining label material. I then washed the rod with dawn dish detergent to remove the orange oil from the Gojo and thoroughly rinsed the rod before installing it.

I would use a nylon spatula and sponge with a little soap and gently rub it out. Clean it after each use carefully as mentioned after turning it off for about ten mins.

It shouldn't peel at all. I've had mine for 2 months and it's been fine. I'd ask the manufacturer to replace it if it were me. Sorry that happened to you.

I caught mine in time to peel it off. Maybe reheat it and try to get it off. Good Luck.

I would use one of those scratchy cleaning cloths first, then oil it well. Heat it some to help it sink in. Afterwards only clean with water, swish out the food with the scratchy pad, dry, re-oil and you should be good to go.

My wok gets that way too. I dry my wok by putting it back over my gas burner and allow the heat to dry the cooking surface. If you have rust on your wok the next time you use it, just take a moist paper towel and wipe the inside of your wok. Allow the wok to be seasoned, everything cooks better. Don't use soap or a Brillo type pad to clean your wok

I went on the internet and found a video that explained the whole process. As you can see there is a wax substance over the entire wok that needs to be removed, than you season it. I boiled water in the wok and worked the wax off, than took peanut oil and paper towel and lightly cover the complete wok, turn upside down in oven for 20 minutes, (can't remember the temp, but it will tell you on the internet). Turned out great use it a lot, love it!!!

It's teflon, and ours has shown significant peeling in only a couple years. That surprised us (and is hopefully not rypical), as did the cost of a replacement pot!

I would suggest scraping it off with a razor blade and then using the Goof Off to remove the remaining stickiness. Good Luck.

Scrape it off with your fingernail or you can use some soft scrub & water. Has worked for me.

I've been using the wok since August 2012. It is really non-stick. The wok is big enough to make soup in it and light enough for me to lift it. Unfortunately, the coated is scratched. I don't know how it happened. I probably will need to replace it.

There is a screw that allows you to adjust the peeler tension. If it's not in the instructions, look at the diagram of the parts and loosen the part that controls the tension. I had the same problem but fixed it fine. If you can't find it, ask again and I'll check my peeler when I get back home...probably Tuesday 11-5.

I usually soak the pan in hot soapy water and use a vegetable brush to clean mine. The other suggestions that people have offered sound good, too. If you continue to have problems, contact Le Creuset for additional ideas.

i just cooked fried rice with this wok and I had black bits come off! I can see lighter metal where the black come off. I don't know how that's possible for cast iron.

I always use the soft side of the sponge so I don't scratch the surface. BUT!!! Two of my pans have the protective coating peeling off even though I have been SUPER careful with these pans. I don't think they are a good product; I won't buy them again.
