Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners that are too short or not designed for plastic, leading to inadequate holding power or damage.Utilize self-tapping screws or rivets specifically designed for polycarbonate, or consult the material manufacturer for recommended fastening solutions.
Cleaning the sheet with abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that can cause surface scratching or material degradation.Clean using mild soap and water with a soft cloth. For stubborn marks, use a polycarbonate-specific cleaner, and always test in an inconspicuous area first.
