    masonary bit for fiberglass / gel coat

     



    I just installed a shower / tub unit for dad, and by chance, the drill bit I used was was a masonry bit. It cut through the gel coat very clean, with no chipping.

    Just thought I'd share.

    That's a good trick and well worth remembering.
    Thanks.
