the Italian surrendered ....
I cut a 20 tiles 60x60x2 and it was ok.
Today has surrendered be in front of a 10mm. :(

I took this bath, 60x120 florim rex.
never seen a tile so hard .... :(
with the tile cutter it was almost impossible to cut them, 1 cut every 4
it was ok. the tiles were counted, I could not afford to make mistakes.
so I decided to use the grinder, 6 diamond blades available.
the only blade that could cut a bit, was an old montolit tcs
now at the end of life and even cracked. :(
I also tried it with a sponge, nothing to do.
I gave up and bought a new tcs 115 .... amen
Ps the tcs montolit is smoking the tiles ...
first, they smoked the blades

Thanks for sharing your experience @antonio.
That knowledge will save a lot of time and money for some of us.
I see you’re using new clips?

then, the pink blade made in Italy
he made me turns the bales and ended up in the toolbox.
I mounted this black norton, I state that it was the first time
that I used that diamond design
and I did not convince me already before use ..
but .... after 2 days .... I changed my mind,
the blade sinks into the porcelain like
butter and with a few chips, I cross my fingers and I hope it lasts a lot of time.
we feel next week with thin porcelain cuts.
I do not go on vacation ...
