Default Is Cast Iron ok for pressing?

I was given an old cast iron sausage/lard press from an elderly family
member. It holds about 1 gallon. It has 2 different size press plates.
A large one for sausage, and a smaller one that goes inside a
stainless steel strainer for lard.


Anyone know if cast iron is ok for pressing fruit?

The thing is a little grungy. I was thinking of having it sandblasted
then wiping it down with vegetable oil.
