Picked it up for a song recently. I suspect it to be a BSR but it’s kind of weird. Also, why is it so clean and skinny? It looks like aluminum but it’s labeled as CI.

It’s shiny because it isn’t seasoned. Easy fix.
I’ve seasoned plenty of pans, bare iron isn’t usually shiny, it’s kind of dull, looks like a nickel kind of. This pan looks like a buffed mirror!
I just ground down my lodge, and it’s not difficult to get any level of shiney. It’s just a matter of moving up in grit - I started with 24, then worked my way up to 220. It was fun.
I love that shiny look. But I also love how good a freshly seasoned pan looks too. Can’t have your cake and eat it too I guess
