I have a wide variety of diamond blades by different manufacturers, it’s trial and error, one blade chips one tile but then cuts clean on another. I always try blades on an off cut to find the one with best results.

it also has a lot to do with the operators skill with the grinder

Do you cut with a wet sponge ?

No, I have never tried, although I have seen it done. In UK and Ireland I have always been able to hire an overhead wet saw, and even then I have bought my own blades because the ones supplied didnt always cut without chips. I haven’t found one for hire here.
I don’t think it is technique as I have managed to grind and cut with fixed speed machines and Bosch blades before without chipping. Just not having much luck with the one blade I have at the moment and thought I’d ask for reccomendations from those with more experience.

I still have the page open on my desktop. Found it looking through earlier posts yesterday.

I found the old Bosch blade order on Amazon. Two 125mm blades, one construction and one tile for £17. Maybe I should try that one too. Worked before.

Giovanni, you can put a photo with the chips?
just to understand better

 

[Paul Giovanni Raimondi]

This is the only piece not already placed, and it is the offcut. It was probably one of the first cuts so the blade was not bedded in.
I'm afraid I am used to using a stationary wet saw.

Montolit are one of the best I’ve used. Montolit CGX

I still use the Chinese blades though. They work really well and are a fraction of the cost of Montolit.

I’ve had the same Montolit blade in one grinder for 8 months. I really rate the blade.

The blade is new, it has done few cuts.
