| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using overly aggressive abrasive grits initially, leading to excessive material removal and surface scarring. | Begin with a coarser grit appropriate for the initial surface condition and progressively step down to finer grits for a smooth, defect-free finish. |
| Inconsistent application of pressure or motion during the polishing process, resulting in uneven surface sheen. | Maintain a steady, uniform pressure and a consistent motion (e.g., linear or orbital) throughout the entire polishing stage for a uniform appearance. |
