Why Some Stain Well And Others Don't

a: Bacteria ~
b: metal wall

What: "Imagine you're painting a wall -- normal housepaint will stick well to a primed drywall surface, but it won't stick well to a shiny metal surface. So, by analogy, some bacteria are like the metal wall, and some are like the drywall. And therefore, some bacteria are dyed more strongly than others."
