| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel cutting tools which can lead to contamination and reduced corrosion resistance. | Always use dedicated stainless steel cutting tools made from high-speed steel or carbide to prevent cross-contamination. |
| Inadequate post-weld cleaning, leading to potential surface oxidation and compromised corrosion resistance. | Thoroughly clean all weld areas with a passivation solution and rinse to remove any residual contaminants. |
