Cutting coloured concrete slabs

Hi,

Has anyone cut coloured concrete slabs with an angle grinder before? If so did the aggregate in the concrete detract from the overall finish?

I'm just wondering as I may have to cut down some coping stones to a more suitable width and wanted to know if i'd be wasting my time.

Cheers,

Not really, though I cant recall leaving a cut face showing, as no matter how good you are cutting them, they will not be perfectly straight, and will have grinder marks on the face.

I cut some with my Plasplugs tile cutter and got a beautiful near polished edge which looked far better than the real surface. ;-) It was roughly the same colour too - they were red ones. I'd guess it might vary according to the construction/colour, though.
