Terry green, RPT, et al, ... I don't use anything special for belt sanding new bridge pins. The belts are good quality 40-60 grit (though the grit changes pretty fast when taking steel pins down). Regarding nickle or chrome (plated ?) pins, I don't have any experience with them nor do I know of a handy source. Someone else does though, I'm sure. As for the aesthetics of chrome over copper, I'd say its a judgement call. I don't have anything against the look of the copper plated ones, myself.
