How to use

Install the cutter into a compatible rotary or oscillating tool according to the tool manufacturer’s instructions. Set the tool speed to match the material and task — lower speeds for better control in delicate tiles, higher speeds for faster removal in robust materials. Position the blade in the grout line and move the tool steadily along the joint, controlling depth to avoid damaging tile edges. Clean debris from the joint periodically to assess progress and repeat until the desired depth and cleanliness are achieved. Finish by vacuuming or brushing the joint before applying new grout or sealant.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, gloves, and a dust mask. Test the cutter on a small, inconspicuous area first to determine optimal speed and pressure for the tile material. Replace the blade when signs of wear reduce cutting efficiency to maintain clean results.
