New question on stainless steel pins

**This is very interesting. I think I started a stainless pin topic and also the rust topic. I am presently trying to rust 2 stainless steel pins. They have been in a wet paper towel, now for about 2 weeks and nothing has happened. I will carry on and endure with my experiment. . . . or is it time to stop? **

Try adding salts and other chlorine or halogen-containing compounds.

I will add a bit of salt, right now. Thank you. I’m not sure I can add Clorox with salt, so I will not do that, yet.

Try chlorine. Pool chemical stuff should work.

OK. Sooner or later, I will proove these pins rust. However for as long as the are taking to rust, I could probably be able to trust their longevity in a cross stitch over time.
