Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Overtightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks and premature failure.Use washers and allow for slight expansion/contraction by not fully tightening fasteners until all are in place.
Using incompatible cleaning agents that can etch or cloud the polycarbonate surface.Clean with mild soap and water, or a dedicated polycarbonate cleaner. Avoid ammonia-based or abrasive cleaners.
