| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using excessive pressure during abrasion, leading to uneven material removal. | Apply consistent, moderate pressure and utilize progressive grit sizes for controlled material removal. |
| Failing to address edge burrs before polishing, resulting in a compromised finish. | Deburr all cut edges thoroughly using a file or deburring tool prior to surface finishing. |
