Been tempted for a while to buy a trim saw but those pads are well over priced

That saw is the dogs! If you are wanting pads just for smoothing tiled edges just get cheap ones off the net, only pay dear if for stone profiling etc

eBay diamond hand pads, plenty to go at.

The mitre saw looks good, what blade do you need for it ?

Ive been cutting the porcelanosa 8mm box zink plated stuff this week with the standard blade. Bought three of the carbide disks aswell.
Standard works fine.
The slots on the top of the clamp are perfect.

I've used ATS before, very impresses with their diamind bits.
Will have a good look later.
Thanks HM.
Using Porcelanosa 1000x333 dark grey tiles. As usual the clean cut without any white crazing on the edge is such a fine line to perfect. Although ceramic these pads might help correction.

Hi, is it not better just to use flex polisher for tile/stone edge?

the hand pads definitely have a place for me especially on ceramic
