the first step in a lot of people don't say to not put water on. your cast iron is to put hot water on. the gas side ...

salt and a litle cooking oil works.

Steel wool.

Clean it well then oil it...olive oil or any food oil...wipe it down a few times until no more rust...then always keep it oiled after every use

protect your work surface with towels or newspaper, and wear gloves. scrub with vegetable oil and a non-soapy steel wool pad or other abrasive "scrubby", or veg oil and coarse salt. , then wipe clean with paper towels, damp if need be, and repeat the scrubbing. When you have no more rust, just oil, season it by putting the oiled pan in the oven at low heat.

dish soap to lube the steel wool. don't add water, just scrub with the soap. when you think its clean, rinse and check the rust spots if gone, then heat the pan to a medium heat, coat pan with cooking oil. some will put in in a 250 degree oven over night to get all oil absorbed. should be good to go come morning.

Hand wash only...those dishwashers pitted a pan of mine...yup did the same thing in my first apartment.

Iron+water=rust. Even if you were washing the pan in a running stream, the water is just to rinse the impurities away. Once you have cleaned the rust off, a tablespoon of grease or oil rubbed on the skillet, then the skillet in the oven for 20 minutes, leaves a seasoned skillet. Never cook on High, wipe out the skillet after use, store with a paper towel between pans, and let it get black from use. It can certainly outlive you and possibly your grandchildren. ☺️

ah..done that too. thank goodness for grandma's.
