A few questions for POR-15 users

I have some very small rust blisters on my oil pan, and want to get them under control before things get out of hand. I ordered a POR-15 kit, but I was wondering about a few things, and since I could not find the answers elsewhere on the forum, I am turning to you all!

1) How much of the rust do you reomve. The POR-15 leaflet suggests that it is better applied over some rust. So, did you sand down to bare metal, or jeave some rust on the pan?

2) Did you use the POR-15 suppled degreaser, or something else (i.e. brake clean).

3) Did you find it necessary to use the "metal treatment"?

Thanks in advance for the advice. I recently managed to get my truck into my garage, so I have a lot of time to work on this.
