Import Tips
• Mirror polish + chrome plating distinguished from 'further worked' polishing alone per Chapter notes
• Salt spray test results (>500 hours) prove corrosion resistance beyond decorative classification
• Customs may request end-use verification; showroom contracts support decorative vs structural use
