Overview

Supported Applications
-Mold for Precious and Non-Precious casting (non-ferrous metals including gold, silver, aluminum, brass, bronze, zinc, etc)
-Use as a facing sand with other sand systems such as water-bonded greensand.
-Backing sand for delft-clay in order to increase delft clay utilization.
Directions/Use Notes
-Sand should be riddled (broken up) prior to placing against pattern.
-Moderately heavy ramming or pressing is required for optimal mold performance.
-Appropriate mold release should be used with all patterns to avoid sticking and to maximize detail reproduction (Teton-Partâ„¢ or similar is recommended)
Application Notes
Cold Sensitivity: Dry and Powdery Sand that does not hold form
-Use and store above 65F
-Sand may become powdery or dry if exposed to cold.
Regenerating Sand (fix dry sand)
-Add a tiny amount of isopropyl alcohol to the sand (ideally via bottle sprayer) and mix well. Generally, less than 1/2 teaspoon Alcohol required for 10lb evenly spread through the sand.
-Always allow alcohol to evaporate completely before attempting to use sand.
Reusing Sand/Black Crust
-Sand is mostly resuable per casting.
-Small amount of black crust is formed around the casting.
-This crust is two parts: 1. Black sand. 2. Grey, "crispy" sand
-Only the grey sand that feels "crispy" next to the casting should be discarded.
