I had been asked this question by my college professor while I was bunking the class.

My question is taken from Fettling and Cleaning of Castings topic in division Concept of Gating and Risering of Foundry and Forging

Answer 1

Right choice is (a) Fettling

The best I can explain: Fettling is the name of the process to cover all those operations which help to give the casting a good appearance after the casting has been shaken on a vibrator and then taken out of the sand mould.
