Do you put it in the oven at 400 for an hour or turn the oven off and let it sit for an hour?
Keep oven on for an hour.

400 degrees is to high, the oil will burn imparting nasty flavors to the pan.
300 hundred for 25 minutes is plenty and don’t use olive oil.
I use salt and paper towel to clean, I only reseason pan if things are starting to stick
