Default Re: large glass tiles

hi mate....use an spf adhesive and lightly back skim the tiles to avoid shadowing through the glass's back...straight cuts as usual and wet cut any shapes...i use a blade designed for wet cutting glass called a CVG blade and these can be obtained from rubi....If using in a kitchen check the instructions that come with them or manufactures..because not all glass tiles are suitable for use behind gas cookers as they can shatter with the heat..when grouting use a fine sanded grout specifically for glass etc..as some grouts will scratch the glass...and it needs to be flexi to adhere to the tiles edges.....good luck and post us some pics in the gallery..i would like to see these as i use glass quite a bit and like to see what applications it used in... ......dave...
