CAN I TAKE A GLASS CUTTER AND CUT A MIRROR TO THE SIZE THAT I WANT?

Mirror is cut exactly the way you cut glass. If you've cut glass before, go to it.

Does it matter if you cut from the front or rear?

You must cut it on the front. The back has a protective coat of paint.

Thanks for this thread! I've been losing my mind trying to cut the mirror tiles from the back and breaking them! Cutting them from the front makes sense. Thanks again!
