| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel cutting tools which can lead to carbon contamination and reduced corrosion resistance. | Employ dedicated stainless steel cutting tools (e.g., abrasive cut-off wheels or plasma cutters) and ensure they are clean and free from carbon steel residue. |
| Improper handling leading to surface scratches or gouges which can initiate corrosion points. | Handle the sheet with clean, gloved hands or using soft lifting equipment to preserve the surface finish. Avoid dragging the sheet across rough surfaces. |
