Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel tools for cutting or grinding, leading to contamination and potential rust.Always use dedicated stainless steel tools (saws, grinders) that have not been used with carbon steel to prevent cross-contamination.
Improper cleaning after fabrication, leaving residues that can compromise corrosion resistance.Thoroughly clean the sheet with a mild detergent or appropriate stainless steel cleaner after all fabrication steps are complete.
