Is it permitted to point out that few internal combustions use S/S
cylinder sleeves? And fewer yet use S/S engine blocks. Chromed steel
I have seen, yes. But how, if you please, does this relate to
seasoning, as you call it, of S/S pans? Do they use moly sulphide
to coat the surfaces, as has been used in transmissions? Hm?

Hardly useful for S/S skillets, I think.

PLease explain. I've been online for over 15 years and have no
memory of ever seeing a decent "explanation" of how one
"seasons" S/S.

Alex, starting the timer.....
