Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without accommodating thermal expansion.Employ oversized holes or slotted holes with washers to permit expansion and contraction due to temperature changes, preventing stress and cracking.
Aggressive cleaning with abrasive materials or harsh solvents.Utilize mild soap and water with a soft cloth. For stubborn marks, consult manufacturer-approved polycarbonate cleaners.
