Yes.

Apparently you can’t hear up tortillas in them without it forever getting scorch marks. I suppose only thing I haven’t tried is using a machine sander on it to try to remove it.

Barkeepers friend (powdered metal and glass polish/cleaner, typically comes in a cannister) will get that off with a little bit of elbow grease.

Half the pans I’ve bought i got at a thrift store for like a buck because people thought they ruined them with a little bit of scorching., and I’ve gotten some nice stuff.

Unfortunately haven’t found that cheaply available in Finland. I know about it too. It’s the only thing I haven’t tried other than straight up sanding it

Are those scorch marks an issue beyond aesthetics though? (Genuinely curious, not judging)

A straight angle grinder is better suited for that job

Really? It sounds like you’re burning your tortillas, or your tortillas don’t have enough oil/fat in them.
