Like many others I no longer use the pins. I tumble using a half teaspoon of citric acid and good squirt morning fresh lemon dishwasher (I’ve tried all the Brands and this works best) Also you must use HOT water. I tumble in a Frankfort Arsenal tumbler for between 15-30 min & then rinse clean and dry by putting in a towel sock before putting on trays in the sun.
Works a great

Yes no issues at all. Seems to clean them ok. The secret with the citric acid and morning fresh is to use hot water from the tap
