These,
You haven't got a hope cutting these without chipping.
I gave them a very light score through the sigma & were ok but tried to wet cut them for wetroom floor & they chipped really bad.

Strange as I did a wetroom a year ago with Borneo Blue walls and thought they cut really well both dry and wet, no problems at all

 

[Stevetiler]

Definitely not bowed, I've never had trouble with Porcelanosa tiles, but I know few of the guys have complained about bowing recently
