I've had good luck cleaning them really good with 3M high power brake cleaner, but anything that needs to be changed often or anything that my unlucky ass is going to be driving gets an adjustable.
Good choice- Brake clean or electrical contact cleaner
Take the pump off the truck and lap the gear to the shaft with valve lapping compound. I ran a 13mm this way and it never slipped.
Cat used "bearing mount" compound for years and then switched to loctites labelling. Either way the stuff was green. I've seen it need a torch for removal. I don't know where it stands on the scale of removal to permanent.
