Using soap can disintegrate the oil-based nonstick coating you've worked hard to build up. I only use soap and water when absolutely necessary. Otherwise, a nylon scrubber, Kosher salt, or some other such scrubbing can work just fine. Rinse thoroughly, then place in a warm oven or stove burner till dry. As for Rust, I find any metal scrubber that you may use on your cooking grill works perfectly before rinsing, drying thoroughly and reseasoning. Many find that for the most stubborn stuck-on food, popping it in the oven for awhile dries out the food enough to scrape it off. If all else fails, keep it in your oven while you set it on the self-clean cycle, then reseason. The best way to keep it clean is learning the proper temperatures. If food sticks too much the pan is probably not seasoned enough (lightly oil it), or the cooking temperature is either too hot or too cool.
