Porcelain grinder blades

[Fitwidge]

I’ve just bought a cheap blade of ebay (£5) haha!

It’s actually not bad! (Chips tile abit at times)

But I’m wanting a decent blade, was thinking montolit cgx, anybody had experience?
What the cuts like?

Also need a drilling kit for my grinder?

Cheers in advance!

Have a chat with ATS about their Porcelain blade.

This one:- (red)

Works well on Porc. I do have a Monty CGX too. Very similar quality of finish

not tried the red one
I normally use Turbo X Diamond Porcelain Blade - ATS Diamond Tools - https://www.atsdiamondtools.co.uk/product/turbo-x-diamond-porcelain-blade/
and get very good results

Just checked the website and it’s not listed. ATS sent me the blade to test. I’ve only just had a chance to test it last weekend. Yes it’s a good blade on porcelain.

Oh, how do you guys deal with the dusty grinders?

Was messing about with my grinder yday and the room turned into a cloud -.-

The fan is so powerful you have to hold it down with your wallet...

The red one is superb, I've tried the 115mm in my grinder and also the 160mm in my wet saw (Flex CS60) I've not had chance to try the black ones yet but hope to next week. They are being tested against the ATS 180mm continuous rim blade that I ordered with the saw on 20mm porcelain. Watch this space!

Thanks for the feedback on these so far people.

Yes they are test blades. We like to get real world test where possible and in this case we are interested in the red vs black. So I'm interested how you find the black blade Pete. Feedback so far has suggested it's even better than the red one.

I’ll tell you what, I could’ve done with the fan sucking me out the room this week with all the damn mitres.

Do you grout the mitres or use a coloured resin

I’ll be mixing some black colouring paste into some white resin.
