Just want tips on anything and everything (related to tiling obvs) 😉

Like:

What do you mark tiles with, berol, felt?

How do you deal with mitred tiles once cut, which polishing blades for grinder etc

Best blades in your experience for grinder
(I will be working with porcelain mainly)

Any tools that will be a great addition?

Any other tips

Thanks in advance guys! 🙂
 
Sharpies for marking.
 
Stabilo Point 88 and Staedtler Pencils
Montolit CGX Blade. 3 or 4 different Chinese blades.
Hand diamond polishing pads for mitred joints.
 
My top tip deals with rounded off screw heads.
I've had it happen far too often where a 2min job of taking a door off has taken me half an hour 'cos the screws are overpainted and/or rounded off.
Keep a wide elastic band in your tool box and place that over the screw head and press your bit into that - works a treat every time.

Really? That is the last thing I would try next to using an ice cream scoop or something. Is this Pozidrive screws?
