Not if you use the right stuff...I had mine power washed, cleaned with a steel brush, and then painted with high heat paint. I've driven the car with the swap since early July and it's still on and no traces of it coming off...even if you try to pick at it.

Actually the thing I forgot to mention is that if the block is not cleaned probably and left with any sort of lubricant on (oil, wd40, p/s fluid, etc) it wont stick on properly when sprayed over.

Good luck!
