This American Metalcraft HCSQ1210
square, 1" deep dish pan is
made of hard coat anodized
heavy weight 14 gauge
aluminum with straight sides.
How to season your hard coat
pan: Wash and dry the pan
thoroughly, wipe oil on the
inside and outside surfaces
of the pan and allow to soak
for 30 minutes. Then bake at
regular cooking times and
temperatures. Do not over
bake and do not wash off
hard excess oil, just wipe.
The oil residue, and any
additional oil added before
baking, makes the pan stick
resistant. Remember when
cleaning hard anodized
aluminum, this is considered
an amphoteric coating, and
will be attacked by
solutions of a high alkaline
or acidic nature. Do not
expose these pans to
dishwashers or caustic
cleaning solutions. Use
detergents made specifically
for aluminum.
