Why is it that paint in the wrong place sticks like S*** to a blanket (as
 the old RAF term has it), but despite careful preparation, drops off a
 something where you really want it to stay?

Glass bead blasting brass and aluminium will also make the paint stick to 
those metals like S*** to that blanket.  Do not use any primer, just paint 
right onto the blasted surface.
