Weathered Warrior Oil Stains

kettlebb · September 12, 2018, 06:35:03 PM

Long story short, I really messed up and now have cooking oil stains on my A code weathered warrior. I'm pretty pissed at myself but what's done is done, maybe? Is there anything I can do to get my fade patina back? Or, is this just hurry up and wait?

Cook with it. It will get back to what you want.

Maybe a degreaser? Other than that I'm with @Darko...don't worry about it.

I wouldn't use a degreaser. I have the same and honestly didn't find a way to get it clean (I don't want to use a degreaser as it can damage the weathered patina)

Wow, you're being rather hard on yourself ... $h!t happens.

This has happened to me. I recommend covering the entire lid and bowl in oil / bacon grease.
Then everything is uniform. Then do as Darko mentioned, and all will be good in your world ... after some time. Patience.

Don't fear. Look at what my Wood Dale looked like when I got it. I rubbed down the exterior with Pam, and eventually it developed an even patina.

Yep mine got penetrating oil on it by my agent. I made a hot fire in it, and even gently used a weed burner on it in short bursts. A lot of the stains did disappear but it wasn't the same. I ended up Pam'ing it and actually like it looking like it did when new better than the faded look.

26 in the middle Pam'd up
