| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel tools for cutting or grinding, leading to contamination and potential rust spots. | Always use dedicated stainless steel tooling to prevent cross-contamination and maintain the material's inherent corrosion resistance. |
| Inadequate post-weld cleaning, leaving behind heat tint or scale that compromises corrosion resistance. | Thoroughly clean and de-scale all welds using mechanical or chemical methods to restore the protective passive layer. |
