| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel fasteners that will corrode and stain the stainless steel. | Always use fasteners made from 316 stainless steel or a compatible corrosion-resistant alloy to maintain the integrity of the installation. |
| Improper handling leading to scratches or surface damage, compromising aesthetic and potentially initiating corrosion points. | Handle the sheet with care, using non-marring tools and protective coverings during transportation and installation. Avoid dragging the sheet across rough surfaces. |
