<p>Of course, the fastest way to deliberately destroy a teflonized pan is to use a sanding tool on it.</p>
<p>I use a tiny bit of EVOO on a piece of paper napkin to grease my All Clad non stick pans. If the Teflon lining is in good condition, you really don’t need to use a non-stick spray or flood the pan with oil. My previous pan served me well for many years unil a person who shall not be named in a public online forum ruined it by scraping it with a metal object.</p>
