Re-oil while hot enough to smoke?

How many of you add another layer of seasoning oil while the pan is still hot enough to smoke the oil as soon as you wipe the pan? You need protective gloves, but I find it really speeds up the seasoning process.

Yes! Exactly. It’s fun to watch the pan get darker in your hands.

I wait until it gets around 200 until I re-oil and then heat to 475 again.
