need help with the union option

I am stuck in the Learning Path - Introduction to Part Studios - Advanced Features/Exercise: Funnel

I am stuck on step 12 of 18. When I try to create a union between part 2 and part 1, I receive a response of (Boolean resulted in no geometry change. The parts either do not intersect or are totally contained). I am unable to create the desired one uniform color of grey for both parts.

my document link is in the Tags box.

any help would be greatly appreciated.
