When those glue line rips first came out I did seem to have some

Although I do own one special purpose thin kerf, as a general rule I
don't use thin kerf blades ... the Freud blade I was referring to is
1/8" kerf, Glue-Line-Rip.


I have the same blade, the LM74R010. They do make a thin kerf version,
LM75R010, but with the thinner plate, I would not want to use it and I
really doubt it would yield the same results no matter how perfect the
table saw was set up.

I have noticed that you can still get burn marks on the fence side of
the cut with the full kerf blade if you stall the feed rate anywhere in
the cut. I think that's probably just the nature of the beast, however.
I try to make sure I can get an uninterrupted feed for anything on which
I need a "finished" surface.
