The sand that was used was too coarse and should of been finer to give a smoother finish. In the end, I used some body filler to smooth the finish and painted the mirror bases white to match the car body. They came out very nice! In Part 2, I have more details on the actual process of Casting Aluminum Mirror Bases.

Sand casting manufacture, however, only imparts a fair amount of dimensional accuracy to the cast part. After the sand casting is removed from the sand mold it is shaken out, all the sand is otherwise removed from the casting, and the gating system is cut off the part. The part may then undergo further manufacturing processes such as heat ...

Spin casting, also known as centrifugal rubber mold casting (CRMC), is a method of utilizing centrifugal force to produce castings from a rubber mold. Typically, a disc-shaped mold is spun along its central axis at a set speed. The casting material, usually molten metal or liquid thermoset plastic, is then poured in through an opening at the top-center of the mold.
