I mean, to be fair, you dont have to buy a new laser to clean another pan

This is why I hate Reddit. It's full of people who cosplay engineers and think they know it all. 

I work in this field. Those laser rust cleaning things are single use. You have to replace the entire unit after EVERY SINGLE WAFFLE IRON.

You must be a shitty engineer because that’s 100% false

Am also Enginseer. You are wrong, they must be replaced after every waffle iron. Oddly, the canticles of activation say they can be used for many other things, but doing a waffle iron is what makes them disposable.
