    Default Diamond blade advice needed

    which blade would you advise to use with the mosaics which have a porcelain back and the fronts of them are capped over with s/steel I would say 75% off them are like this and the other 25% are glass
    any ideas on the best blade to use????
    p.s the tiles are only 8mm thick on a 300x300 sheet

    I have a marcrist blade and a rubi blade do you think these will be ok??? or can you suggest a better blade dont want the s/steel to burr or go blue!!!

    Done similar a few weeks ago. Marcrist blade will cut them fine......but you will need to file the SS edged tles. As mentioned, use plenty of water or the SS will get hot and darken
