Hi guys, I'm trying to create a Metalflake finish in Pov-ray. Back in the
seventies it was a popular type of paint, using a very rough metallic flake
basecoat, under a smooth glossy transparant coloured paint. The texture I
used in this pic is:

texture { pigment { color red 0.200 green 0.000 blue 0.200 }finish{phong 2
roughness .05 specular 2 metallic .9 reflection .3} normal {bumps .3}}

it looks okay for the basecoat but needs a smooth glossy top layer.... Has
anyone got some tips or ideas how to improve this?
