Seasoning compound
Worked really well. I used Chris's lye bath method on two 12" pans, and did three rounds of seasoning. My wife thought I had bought new pans.

Great!
Great product, makes seasoning less of a mess and works great. Also seems to better than regular oil for the day to day maintenance and keeps the cast iron in better shape longer between seasonings

Seasoning & Maintenance Compound
I was skeptical. I ordered some to try. I have been very happy with the results. I have been using it on my everyday Lodge cookware. After I clean and wash, with soap, I apply it as instructed. My skillets are a bit less sticky while cooking and they clean up much easier. I think the best part is I am done treating them with oil and ALL the problems that comes with that. Good job, CIC.

Great Product
I’ve had great success using this seasoning and maintenance compound in combination with Chris’s instructional videos. My cast iron has never looked and preformed better!

Cast Iron Chris Seasoning Compound
I recently tried out the ‘Cast Iron Chris Seasoning Compound,’ and I’m thoroughly impressed! It’s less wasteful, less messy, and easier to store compared to traditional oils. The blend of dual high-temperature oils with the perfect ratio of beeswax makes it optimal for seasoning my cast iron cookware. Applying it is a breeze, thanks to its natural ingredients, and it has significantly improved the condition of my cast iron compared to other oils I’ve used. Whether for regular maintenance or restoring the seasoning, this product consistently delivers excellent results. Highly recommended for all cast iron enthusiasts!

Compound
Picked up a tin of this after watching restoration videos by Chris. Looked at other brands online in Canada and wanted to avoid the exchange. Well I’m glad I decided to go with Chris’ compound! Very reasonably priced even with the exchange. Arrived quickly! I have 3 skillets, one very good one and a couple that have been through the wringer…used for camping and sat outside in rain and used over many fires. Cleaned up all 3 and put them through 3 rounds of seasoning! All in all about 4hrs. The results were amazing! Even my cheap beat up cast iron look incredible and are now my fav skillets to use! Followed Chris’ cleaning/drying instructions and now use the compound for maintenance! Night and day! Altho am still arguing with neighbours about soap on cast iron! Definitely recommend this product! Glad I found your IG!!! Will def be ordering again!!!! 5 stars!

Seriously amazing stuff
This compound has single handedly made using my cast iron so much easier! I went from avoiding using it for avoiding all the hassle of maintenance, to wanting to use it regularly. My already well seasoned pan is somehow even better with a coat of this stuff. I also used it to season a new carbon steel wok, and it was so much easier to work with than using oil.

Seasoning and Maintenance Compound
Used this a few times this week and it's awesome. Works really well and smells good, too! You need less than you think. Definitely use a cotton towel or similar. You can get away with a paper towel using oil but not really with this. I think the beeswax bullies the paper towel into falling apart. Anyway I accidentally bought two and I'm glad I did. Thanks!

Cast Iron Chris Maintenance and Seasoning compound
I have very old cast iron pans. I wash them with soap and now treat them with the Maintenance and Seasoning Compound. They have never looked better and are so smooth. I love. My pans and look forward to having them for many more years. Thank you for this great product keeping them.for a long time.

Can’t thank you enough.
Chris I was looking for a way to leave a review maybe I didn’t google the right thing. With that said 5 stars. Both the video series and the compound. I have always had a love to cast iron growing up in South Louisiana. I had several pieces that belonged to my grandparents and several pieces I bought here and there for really cheap. All that to say these all went through hurricane Katrina and suffered some rust, luckily that was all. I had cleaned them and “re-seasoned” them by just heating them up on a seafood boiler. They have now all been restored to their former glory because of all of your great videos. Also some of us need a tub of your compound. lol.

Best I’ve tried!
I’m on my second tin and I recommend it to everyone. I’ve been using it on my cast iron and my carbon steel, works great on both.
