I have some very expensive glass tiles to fix on a splashback. Need some advice on good diamond blades for my wet cut for these tiles. What blades have you guys used and got good cutting results.

hi andrew,i was using a marcrist ck850 a couple of years ago and did a small red glass job,it cut fine but had to keep the water well topped up i found it cut much better if totally full

also found dipping my hands in a abucket of water after every cut stopped glass nipping into my fingers

not done many full glass jobs to be honest ,done a green glass last year but was all dry cuts

Great tip Jamie

It's been a number of years since I done any glass, do they have a colour backing.

hi mark,yes they both had coloured backings mate

thanks for the compliment mark

Ive done quite a few jobs with glass tiles and have never had a problem using the macrist ck850 blade and my plasplugs wetcutter. Dont use a grinder it'll crack the tiles, even a variable speed one wont do it.
