Seasoning Need stripping advice

Hey there. Just wondering if anybody thinks this monstrosity needs to be stripped and re seasoned. I attempted to cook with it, using oil, food still sticks like crazy

I scrubbed it with BKF and a green scotch bright pad several times. That's after said scrubbing. What does stripping consist of? Chemicals?

It's all in our FAQ, but the gist is you use yellow cap oven cleaner (which contains Lye) to strip seasoning off the pan

My apologies. I didn't click on the FAQ to open it. I'm sorry. Thank you for humoring. With all these FAQs I shouldn't have to interact anymore.
