PSA: My $200 track saw blade dulled in half the time after I switched to plywood with melamine
Bought a nice Freud blade for my Makita track saw back in March. First 3 months on regular birch ply it was cutting like butter. Then I took a job building 20 cabinets for a new build using prefinished melamine plywood. That stuff ate the carbide tips in about 6 sheets. Now I gotta spend another $70 on a replacement. Anyone else notice melamine kills blades way faster than regular ply?

Man melamine is pure carbide killer. Did you try using a blade specifically for melamine or just run your general purpose one through it? That coated stuff is basically sandpaper on the cutting edge.
