It is my understanding that, if the surface to be rust proofed is all rusty (no 
clean metal) then you should not need to use a metal etching acid as the rusty 
surface has enough tooth for the POR15 to grab onto--I have experimented with 
this on a bent part not usable, and this seems to be the case. You would want 
to remove any lose rust to make sure it doesn't chip off at a later time. The 
Marine Clean would be useful for any painting process to remove any and all 
oil, etc as I am pretty sure not much would stick, in the long term, to a 
surface not cleaned of oils, etc. 

At least, this has been my experience as I learn about new processes.

Sorry I can't help, Tim.  But I wonder if anyone else sees the irony in a
product called "Paint Over Rust" that requires two other special preparation
chemicals.
