Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks.Use washers and avoid direct metal-to-plastic contact. Tighten fasteners to a snug fit, not to their maximum torque.
Using abrasive cleaning agents that scratch the surface.Clean with mild soap and water, or a specialized polycarbonate cleaner. Avoid paper towels or rough cloths.
