Olive oil or vegetable oil.  Whichever I have on hand.  I bake it off in the oven.  I only do a full coat seasoning when new, or its in rough shape and needs a rehab.

I do the same with my carbon steel camping pan.

This reminds me, I have a couple old pans I acquired a year or two ago in my shed that need a rehab.  Vinegar soak, wire brush, good wash and degrease, then a half a dozen oil coats and bake!

Canolla oil works fine.

3M paint and rust wheel to grind down the factory imperfections and remove whatever goofy seasoning they put on followed by several baked on flaxseed coats.  Bacon is always the first food item to be cooked.

Bacon grease is my preference, but olive and canola oils as well as ghee have worked well.

I used to use Grapeseed oil and found that it made a terrible rubbery mess when stored for many months.  Total PITA to undo.

Grapeseed oil.  All I use for seasoning and each pan gets a wipedown with it after being cleaned.  I also use it for seasoning my Blackstone flat top.
