The best thing I have found to cut fiberglass is my 4 1/2 inch angle grinder with a cheap 16 to 20 dollar masonary wheel ( Diamond wheel) from lowes or home depot. It cuts its like butter!!! no chipping of edges and will even cut thru core material to a certain extent. go back to the tile floor section were all the tile tools are.

agree best to use that's what i've found to be best and leaves cleanest edges. i always use my 4" angle grinder and my air cut off wheels.
