If you have an actual polymer layer, it won’t be harmed. Dry it off, throw it on the burner. Get it hot, give it a touch of oil, and store it.

minus-squaredouglasg14b@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 day agoWell, yes, but let’s not be intentionally obtuse eh? “Harm” in this case refers to the seasoning (polymer layer), which takes time and effort to repair if it’s significantly damaged. In the same way that scratching a wood floor is harming it (you can just resurface it), or denting your drywall is harm (you can just repair it).
