Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard PVC solvent cement on polycarbonateUtilize solvent cements specifically formulated for polycarbonate to ensure proper fusion and prevent material degradation.
Exposing to excessive UV radiation without protectionConsider UV-resistant coatings or enclosures for applications with prolonged direct sunlight exposure to prevent yellowing and embrittlement.

Common Applications
