Teton-Bond Petrobond Fine (130 Mesh) Foundry Metal Casting Sand For High Detail (5lb)

Excellent product especially if you're working with lower melting point metals. As described, the part you have to get rid of does turn black and pretty much entirely sticks to what you've poured. Didn't need a ton of effort to get the form to turn out. I will say, if you're doing a larger form that's flat, make sure you press the sand pretty well so you don't get any kind of, "pour" stuck in what you're casting. On my second try it worked exactly as advertised with the finish being pretty smooth. Only very minor sanding was required, and I do mean minor. This is a great product and I'd recommend it. If you haven't done any metal casting before you'll need to do a little trial and error to get it right (like I did) but the sand works.

Worked great for intended purpose.Have re-used multiple times.

A good amount to do my casting project.

Using this for large aluminum castings. A surprisingly large amount of the sand turns completely black, dry and powdery after each use. Maybe for smaller pieces (that cool off quicker) there wouldn't be as much degradation?

I used this to cast aluminum and it was way more detailed than I thought it would come out. I'll end up buying this again and it was well worth it.

Very easy to work with

I will update my review after I use it but it looks good

Dries over repeated use
