FCL on connecting flights when inbound F out in J?
I've done a few searches, but can't find quite what I'm looking for.
I'm going to be flying LX SCL-ZRH in First, and connecting to LX ZRH-LCY in Business. Can I use the First Lounge as I'm inbound on F? There's a good 3 hours connection time...
(Also BD *A G)

Your ZRH connection is certainly a nice part of the journey
But be forewarned about the GRU stopover. They'll make you disembark with all your hand luggage and go through security again, as if it was connecting flight 
Although I've no personal experience in F, I don't think there is any preferential treatment ...

From time-to-time there is. When transiting at GRU from BA to LX, the gate supervisor invited me to board first and introduced me to the Maître de Cabine. Was a tad embarrassing, but a nice gesture.
