Mike 1017 Posted February 28, 2023 Posted February 28, 2023 Having previous purchased BMF Ultra Chrome directly from BMF. I am kinda hesitant to buy some more because it wouldn't stick and ripped when separated from the backing. Any thoughts would be appreciated Mike.
JollySipper Posted February 28, 2023 Posted February 28, 2023 BMF has brought the old foil back. I believe it's just called 'chrome'......... Everyone has the same issues as you with the ultra chrome. It's just not good.........
NOBLNG Posted February 28, 2023 Posted February 28, 2023 The recent sub-standard stuff was called “Chrome”. The new good stuff is labeled “New Improved!! Chrome”.
JollySipper Posted February 28, 2023 Posted February 28, 2023 Now I'm confused........ Model Roundup has the Ultra Bright foil, but read the caveat at the beginning of the description....... https://www.modelroundup.com/product-p/bmf-004.htm It says the BMF-001 is the more liked product, but the 001 foil just has 'chrome' on the window sticker...... IDK?
Mike 1017 Posted February 28, 2023 Author Posted February 28, 2023 Thanks guys. I do see the new and approved foil on the web site. Mike
Dpate Posted March 1, 2023 Posted March 1, 2023 I would only recommend buying straight from the OEM. Other places like modelroundup etc might have old stock, and you might get old product instead of the new and improved.

I do buy direct from BMF that way I know that it is "fresh" Just ordered 2 sheets today. 1

I was mainly speaking out loud for anyone that does see this post so they don't get old stock. I should of been more specific so that's my fault lol.
espo Posted March 2, 2023 Posted March 2, 2023 I bought a sheet of the "New and Improved" chrome foil last June at a model swap meet. My experience using it is just like the good old days.
Mike 1017 Posted March 2, 2023 Author Posted March 2, 2023 I am waiting for the BMF to arrive and a 1969 442 waiting to be BMFED. I will let you know how it goes. Mike
av405 Posted March 5, 2023 Posted March 5, 2023 Just confirming it's this one? I'm confused since it's labeled as "chrome" but described as "new improved."
