Was cutting some ceramic floor tiles earlier with my small plasplug wet saw and the blade become blunt and wouldn't cut the tiles so I popped off to few local hardware stores and coukdnt get a replacement blade. I decided to use my dry blade on the grinder(I only use this for cutting out square sockets or light switches) and even thou I got some cut, the dry blade was leaving me with small chipped tiles :(

Ended up phoning a guy I know who had a vitrex small blade, put this on my plasplug cutter and was getting a bit of blade wobble and some chipped tiles again :(

What I'm wanting to know, is there any dry blades that don't leave a chipped tile when cutting and does all vitrex blades wobble/leave a small chipped effect on the cut.
