Discuss Small chips on cut edge - will grout hide them? in the Tile Adhesive and Grout Advice area at TilersForums.com.

Hi All,
I am struggling to cut 10mm thick ceramics(600x300) with my wet cutter without some small chips on the cut edge. I'm worried this will look poor around the window where it meets the trim. My grout is a similar colour to the tile, will it colour the small chips?
Photo attached.

Thanks for your help

That’s fine imho. But if in doubt , dress the edge with a diamond pad 100 grit to create a very small micro chamfer
Thanks Dave, would that create a small white edge down the full tile? Would i then do that on every cut around the window so they all look the same?

And then grout.
