Not only must the parts be clean but you are also supposed to use a 
special acid (?) treatment first. It's harder than hard to remove after 
it's done right. I did my K member with POR-15 and I gotta say it seems 
bullet proof. My gripe is that it turned out kinda hazy. The paint shop 
sold the perp so;ution with the POR-15 or I'd never known it was req'd.
