Hi all,tell me has anyone fitted skytech before?
the tiles are manmade with silver speckles throughout with lovely colours!
today on site i layed my second floor of this stuff,can't cut it on my sigma dry cutters,my big wet saw no prob but they wrecked my blade!!
my grinder blade(marcrist) got the works too,might run out of blade tomorrow!! any tips?
i snapped a couple in half with the sigma but hitting the handle very hard.

cut a few breeze blocks that,ll clean the blade
the resin in these tiles clogs up the diamond dust

ah i think i know the little bugger its got metal in the resin that,ll knacker your blade up no problem
you,ll have to use a metal cutting blade IE Carborundum

Hello Hillhead. My german tilers cut it dry with a hand held flex with good thin diamond blade...
...except when wanting borders cut out of the tile. Then they have to go to a water jet cut company as the edges will crack too much when cut by themselve.
