i saw a calphalon 10'' nonstick omlette pan at a thrift store yesterday and brought it home. due to my lack of knowledge of calphalon and cookware in general, i was under the impression that it was cast iron. it's a very dark gray color, and it's very heavy, but after some research and some playing with magnets, i found out that it was aluminum.
after i got all the burnt grease off the interior of the pan, i found out that it had a nonstick surface. whoever had the pan scratched it up pretty badly. is it safe to use a nonstick surface pan if the nonstick layer is messed up, and is there any way to remove it completely, or will the pan be useless? thanks in advance, any info is appreciated. it was made in china, btw.
