[QUOTE="Tile Fix Direct, post: 951923, member: 51166"] Our sister company sells a lot of 20mm porcelain. As a general rule a powerful wet cut bridge saw will give the best results. Dry angle grinder porcelain blades can work well. Stihl type petrol saws are very difficult to get straight cuts and it can be hard to source porcelain specific blades. Always go for porcelain specific blades. Pre-cut the end of the cut to prevent the cut 'pinging' and consider cutting in two stages. If cutting 'L' shapes pre drill the cut corner to reduce risk of 'pinging'. Sigma Kera-Cut bar system for grinders is probably our favoured option. Easily transportable and simple. It is very, very hard to make a decent profiled edge on site with 2cm porcelain, and some porcelains will not look good profiled. TileFix has a great range of 316 marine grade stainless steel edging in these situations; [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.tilefixdirect.com/product/PQ316DP20[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.tilefixdirect.com/product/PQ316RE20[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.tilefixdirect.com/product/PQ316SE20[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.tilefixdirect.com/product/PQ316SE20-FORM[/URL] [/QUOTE]
