It’s New tools tuesdays - Tile Advice

[One Day]

@impish You had a bash with that new saw then?

Oh yes! used all day on a split-face slate wall, a few 1m porcelain planks and bits and pieces.
First impressions are very good (it's on sale or return).
It's built like a tank, the stainless steel it's made entirely from is about 1/4" thick, the motor is only rated at 0.6kw but it feels very strong, way stronger than anything else this size I've used.
No blade wobble at all - which is usually a real bug-bear for me.
Cuts are fast, super-clean and I love how the pump can be adjusted from completely off to complete drench.
I just got in now, so I can't do a full review...
I will though.

Was it any good? I could have done with one of those yesterday when sealing 50m2 of floor tiles

Yeah it’s great, can’t smell anything at all. There about £20 from screwfix. Should last a while if kept in it’s sealed bag. Not sure if they have a shelf life once opened. My jsp respirator which i use daily has changeable filters and they make vapour filters for that so I’ll get some of them next time, online.

Sealer really blows your brain

make sure to wipe it's insides now and again with an anti-bac wipe and let it dry before bagging it up. Or you can make yourself ill!
