| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using aggressive solvents that can degrade polycarbonate. | Consult chemical resistance charts and use only compatible cleaning agents and joining compounds recommended for polycarbonate. |
| Over-tightening mechanical fittings, which can cause stress cracking. | Hand-tighten fittings initially and then tighten only to the torque specifications recommended by the fitting manufacturer. |
