If it won't stick there could be a couple of causes.

First, BMF went through a period where their product was "improved" (their term, not mine!)... problem was, it didn't stick! No matter what you did, the stuff just wouldn't stick. If you are using old foil made during that period, you're pretty much out of luck, because the foil is junk and really won't stick no matter what you do.

After everyone complained long and loud, BMF finally reformulated their product, and the new stuff seems to work ok. So if you're using a new sheet and it's not sticking, the problem could be caused by what you did to the body before you tried to apply the foil. Did you polish or wax the body before trying to foil it? If you did, that could be the problem, because some polishes have silicone in them and BMF will not stick to it. Also if you waxed the body beforehand, BMF will not stick to wax either.
