I need to staple thin aluminum flashing to pine.


Don't do that. Flashing is usually for wet areas, and dissimilar
metals (like steel staples against aluminum) are not going to
last. Rather, pierce the flashing with a punch and use aluminum
nails. Galvanized (zinc surface) is maybe OK if you keep it dry,
like with a dab of tar/caulk/sealant.
