Talk:Full-mold casting

Same article
This article is exactly almost exactly the same as Lost-foam casting. Either these needs to be merged or more information is required to differentiate them.

 * I don't know if these two articles explain it, but the difference is that full mould casting uses a bonded sand, usually with a coating of a refractory investment first, lost foam uses an unbonded sand.
 * I expect that you can find sources, of varying credibility, to define either term in any way you like. Certainly lost foam is sometimes used as a blanket term for both. Andy Dingley (talk) 20:21, 10 April 2014 (UTC)
