Soldering requires perfectly clean surfaces too. Probably wire wheel both surfaces to be soldered, then use a swipe of flux on the surface of each part and tin both surfaces before final soldering. That is, solder both surfaces and wipe with a clean cotton cloth to leave just a shinny film of solder, then put them together. This will allow the final solder to flow nicely into the joint for a strong weld. If it does not flow then it is a cold solder and has no strength.
