TransAmMike Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 I recieved email from Randy at BMF and he replied to me today that he is getting a new shipment of material Thursday and should be able to ship out orders on Monday. So if from what he said, how did someone get the new new stuff already. Anyway, I also asked him if its the Ultra or Chrome or both. Waiting for his reply.

TransAmMike Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Update: So Randy at BMF emailed back to say the shipment of "materials" is delayed until around the 18th of April and he is going on vacation so who knows when the "new" stuff will be available.

Well hopefully after he returns from vacation. In our hobbies we often have to wait for things (weeks, months years). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not just sit back and enjoy the fact that it appears that the "good" chrome BMF will be available again soon? From the info (emails from BMF) posted here it seems that BMF does not "make" the foil in-house. They have an outside supplier that makes the stuff. BMF might receive it in a roll which they then cut and package, or maybe the supplier does all that. Who knows. But we should be overjoyed that we will have the stuff back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TransAmMike Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Update. The "new" BMF arrived today. Great service by Randy at BMF. I actually ordered it on Easter Sunday and it arrived today in an oversized box. The sheet is perfect. Will give it a try later today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope there is. Otherwise the chances of buying the "bad" stuff is still very possible from online retailers, swap meets and hobby shops.

I had to order the Ultra because its what Randy at BMF said was the "new" stuff. NO, there is not any indication on the package that says its the new foil so Craig, you are right, ya won't be able to tell. At any rate, as far as I can tell, it is like what we have been used to. It's thick enough to not tear easily and it sticks like crazy. I'm a happy camper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't give me "warm and fuzzies". BMF "Ultra" foil was always crappy - too stiff to work with. Oh well, I have decent stash of the "good stuff". At the frequency I currently build new model's I should be all set for life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
