it should just sand and clean both surfaces

It will but it might not be suitable for your application. Like if you're trying to epoxy a handle to a cannon, that wouldn't be good because it would just rip the epoxy off. If you're trying to attach something that has no stress on it then it should be fine.

well i plan on using a big hose clamp too but i just want the JB weld to fill in gaps and add a little support as well.

thanks

Should be fine as long as the hose clamps take most of the stress.

rubbing alcohol, "goo gone", etc. just stay from the really volatile solvents like gasoline, acetone, etc.
