Default Resurfacing newer Lodge to get better non stick

So I moved into house with a electric glass countertop. Think polishing the undersides of my CIs will make them less prone to scratching the glass? I’m sure I’m smart enough to not drop the damn thing.

I've heard our stove tec's telling customers your not supposed to use them on the glass tops but a lot of folks do. I do know they make a plate to put down to transfer the heat and not scratch the surface. No eggs in mine as I prefer a none stick but every thing else they work great, no warping and temps stay even , also no lard for long term storage as it can and will turn rancid if not properly dried out.

Modern cast iron is thicker and heavier by design due to modern stoves putting out less even heat.

The rough surface is just a money saver since grinding/polishing it smooth is labor intensive and people won’t pay big $$$ for new cast iron.

I use my Lodge skillets on our glass cooktop with no issues. Heats well, has never scratched the glass but I don't make a habit of sliding it around.

These are 10" round and 10" square CI skillets.

Loved my cast iron, but they're heavy, and it was getting hard to lift them due to various issues and arthritis, So I reserched and got an 11" steel restaurant style pan, Half the weight, seasons great, and cooks fast, I like it...maybe more then the cast iron...

The other day I was out in the garage looking for some tools and noticed the spousal unit had picked up a couple of different size cast iron from a friend. One was a Griswald in great shape, I am happy ��
