Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using the sheet as a cutting surface without proper support.Always place a sacrificial cutting mat or board beneath the stock sheet when performing cutting operations to protect its precision surface.
Exposing the sheet to excessive moisture without protection.Store and use the carbon steel sheet in a dry environment, and apply a rust-inhibiting coating if prolonged exposure to humidity is unavoidable.
