Are you sure? I've often heard chainmail recommended to clean cast iron.
P sure (but not entirely) that thats for when you purposely want to remove the lining, fx for resale, to make it look brand new
Havent personally heard chainmail reccomended tho, mostly heard of steel sponges, chainmail sounds way cooler tho lol
Depends how hard you scrape. Steel sponges with a lot of force will take you down to metal, chainmail might work nicely for cleaning stuck on food without damaging the coating too much but I haven't used it.
Metal tools you need to really scrape at it to remove the coating, I don't think it is something you could do by mistake.
Makes sense! All this is secondhand knowledge from a bunch of friends who are cooks for a living, so not based on any personal experiences, maybe probably should've clarified that earlier lol
