I've realize over the past several months that one of the best ways to get great looking BMF trim is to make sure that the areas it's being applied to are super smooth. The smoother the 'trim' area is, the better the BMF will look when finished.

That said, I've built one kit where I polished and waxed the model before applying the BMF. It turned out better than anything else I've ever tried. I had no problems with the foil sticking to the finish.

I'd recommend doing BMF after you polish/wax. You might want to give it one more wax at the very end, but that would be up to you.
