Cast iron is intentionally seasoned with oxidized cooking oil to make it non stick, and that should not be cleaned off.

Stainless is pretty easy to get totally clean with steel wool and/or scotchbrite pad sponges.

And Barkeeper's Friend makes it easy to polish up stainless if you like it to look fresh. I find it's mostly cosmetic, but I still do it a few times a year.
