Dewalt 10" XP4 Wet Porcelain Diamond Blade

The price was right and it arrived promptly. I recommend running some scrap pieces through the blade 5 to 10 times before cutting the good pieces to knock off the high spots. There is some chipping along the cut so some dressing down is necessary if the cut will be exposed. Blade cuts fast and smooth. I am using it on 12 X 24 dark porcelain tile and the cutting speed/resistance is very smooth.

I am an experienced DIYer and have laid a lot of tile, but cutting them with a 10" wet saw is a new experience for me, so I have little frame of reference. The blade arrived quickly and ran true on my new Harbor Freight #69275 tile saw. Cutting slowly and carefully, the blade cut cleanly with no chipping. After making perhaps 100 cuts in 12x24 Chinese-made ceramic tiles, I did notice some chipping. Taking advice from another reviewer, I found a cement landscape stone and made a long deep cut in it to "sharpen" the diamonds and expose new cutting edges. This did help in that the chipping was still there, but the chips were much smaller and more consistent. They certainly will not show on the floor from eye level once they are laid and grouted, but they are there. I have repeated the landscape stone cut several times - whenever I notice the chips getting large and uneven. I have noticed that it takes longer/or more force to cut now than it was new. I am not sure how to tell when it is worn out, but I expect it is about half used up after perhaps 500 cuts (I am tiling a stairway and found that scoring and snapping the tiles is not accurate enough for a consistent grout line on all 4 sides, thus the excess amount of cutting....) Are there better blades out there? Possibly, but for $48.50 delivered, this blade seems like a decent value. I will probably try a different brand when this one wears out just to broaden my experience.

Good clean cuts

This blade has really impressed me considering the price . I've done over 4000 square feet of tile and still Cuts clean I'm a flooring contractor and I used to buy the expensive blades 80 $90 but this one's right there with them for a lot less I dress up the blade every 15-20 cuts and it's still going. good recently I had to get some clean cuts against old wood floor 36 feet mind you there was already 4000 square feet on this blade and the cuts were clean on porcelain I've been doing this over 35 years takes a lot for me to give a good review on something especially this day in age everything coming from China but I'm happy to say this blade is well worth every penny

came very well packed and fast
