The biggest thing to remember after washing with detergent and water is the same thing to remember after just rinsing: dry it thoroughly. The easiest way to do that is to wipe it down with a towel and/or leave it on the heat for a bit. Then apply a bit of oil.

you need to heat the oil so it polymerizes and creates a strong nonstick bond. if you simply wipe it with oil when it's hot it will get sticky and not season properly.
