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

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.
