I would suggest trying to clean the metal... Get yourself a flapper disc for your angle grinder and get the metal good and clean then wipe it done with rubbing alcohol or something like that. Be careful with the cleaners though as some put off toxic fumes. Stay away from the Choronated (SP?) cleaners. I use a cheap lacquer thinner and let it completely dry before welding.

Have FUN!
Thanks for the tips! ill definitely keep that in mind and keep at it!
