And thats the other thing, very light taps, you will do hundreds on each pin, thats normal. The general rule regarding how much force to use is, if you hit yourself on the thumb and it hurts, thats too much force. Just keep the taps moving around the pin and go slow and you should do well.

    +1 to what Grant says. Another thing that might help is to polish the end of your peening hammer...helps keep the shine and smoothness.
