Default What are the aluminum repair welding rods ...

Yes!

I use beach sand and boiling water now, because I got to the point where the
outside comes out almost where I dont need to grind much.

I'd love to get my hands on what I've heard referred to as; "Green Sand"
sand and oil mixture for casting?

I've never had to repair pot metal. Out of curiosity, what do people
usually use?


That's what this stuff does best. The trick to potmetal is to
confine and contain it so it can't collapse or run away when it
melts. Eastwood sells a re-usable putty that works well. Approach it
more as "casting in place" than as welding.
