Re: BMF and paint question

I would do it after, so as not to disturb the foil. Not sure how Silicone products will affect the adhesiveness though

Re: BMF and paint question

Be sure to wash the model before applying the Bare Metal Foil, and also to do it before any waxing.

I agree with everyone, bmf after polishing but before waxing. Wax may cause it not to stick as good.

I clear after applying bmf. You don't have to worry about it pealing off and it allows you to polish and wax right over it.
