What do you use to mark your tiles for cuts...

[cowboy]

We use pretty much the same things herr in the states as you folks do over there.

I use pencil mostly & use the pencil/score trick as mentioned as well but the best thing I use for wet cuts on dark tile & most stone is a "White-Out pen" as found in office supply houses for covering up mistakes on paper? . Not sure what they may be called in the UK but Presto Ball point makes a version & I believe Bic too?

I use ceramic markers from non other than Topps Tiles, they mark all types of tiles and don't come off in the wet cutter.
