A question has arisen at a sewing conference today about pins
accidentally left in garmets stored in uncontrolled conditions..

What material would you pick to do the least damage? The current choices
appear to be stainless steel, nickle plated brass, nickle plated steel
and chrome plated steel...

Thanks

Kay
