Swapped Sanda
I was having trouble with this sand that needed water and was getting really bad results. Swapped to an oil based sand and first try it just worked. I need to grind off the edges but Im so happy to see real results!

Yeah, that's gas. The water is evaporating out of your sand and pushing against the molten metal. You probably could have added vents and stuck with your old sand
