Convertible top - Staples are bending!!! @$#%!!!!!!

I have been replacing my conv top ('91 900 TC) according to Pat Price's instructions and they have been dead-on, I would have really been in trouble without them. I am, however, running in to a problem and was wondering if anyone has any advice. I am trying to staple the new top to the front bow (very front of top, above windshield), and the staples are just bending (T50 gun with 1/4" Monel staples). I tried the 3/8" staples (Stainless), and it is even worse. It is as if this strip of material that I am stapling into is too hard. Has anyone encountered this? Any ideas? Stronger staple gun?
Just spoke to Arrow and they tell me that the T50 staple gun is their strongest. Oy.
Ideas?
