How are you "cleaning" it? Wiping it out with a paper towel should be
sufficient. Do not ever subject an iron utensil (or maybe your
skillet) to water.


Water is not the problem, as long as you dry it after rinsing. I set
it on the still hot burner after rinsing. I never use soap on my cast
iron. I put a little hot water in it, scrub with a brush, rinse and
dry it on the burner. Then I rub it with a little oil or butter
before the next use. Soap will quickly remove the seasoning.


Okay, I'll play. WHY are you washing the thing in the first place?



Are you asking about washing, or cleaning?
