THE EDGES OF THE GRIDDLE SURFACE ARE NOT BLACK:
After using your griddle for multiple cooks, the seasoning will even out and improve.
PREVENTING RUST
Use your griddle frequently. every time you cook, you are adding to the seasoning, which makes rust less likely.

NOTICE
If you live in a humid or coastal climate, your griddle may require more frequent seasonings between uses.

If rust appears on the griddle surface, rub it off with steel wool, low grit sandpaper or the Blackstone Pumice stone and re-season the surface.
