Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners that are too sharp or overtightened.Utilize rounded-head screws and washers, and tighten fasteners only until snug to prevent localized stress concentrations.
Cleaning with abrasive materials or harsh solvents.Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap solution. Avoid ammonia-based cleaners or abrasive pads which can scratch or degrade the polycarbonate surface.
