You need to clean the crap out of it first. Sanding wouldn't hurt either. Let it set up for a few days before use. Good Luck.

Yeah, that JB weld works really sweet. Patched a hole no problem in my radiator. The only problem I found is that when you don't let the stuff thicken enough, it doesn't stay really well where you want it.
