In the Sand Casting Process, Mudding or
Daubing Compounds are used to fill any
cracks or defects in molds or cores to
prevent any mechanical penetration of metal
into these cracks or defects during pouring.

Comments :
Do you have a
core daub without water? If not, could
one be made? I have a customer that uses
dab that has to wait a full day before
pouring due to the daub drying slow.
Our Recommendations : By core daub or you
referring to a mudding compound or a
core paste? In our current product line
our mudding compounds do contain water
and our core pastes are solvent based.
