    Yes. I had a pan for almost 20 years and it was never great. In desperation I sanded it smooth.

    Turns out that was the problem. New pans aren’t sanded as part of their manufacturing.

      I fucked up the seasoning on a newer lodge and just sanded it down with 80 then 120 sandpaper then seasoned from scratch. It is now as smooth as any older pan I’ve found.

        I sanded mine down to 600. It’s pretty good now.

      I’ve seen some available that are polished smooth from the factory, but I think they’re made in China. Quality seems good though.
