Car Paint Material

Car paint benefits well from an HDRI sky.
Note:

This Node is only available when editing a classic Cinema 4D Node material.

The Car Paint Material provides you with a metallic car paint. Internally, the material consists of 2 layers:

  • As a base a diffuse color layer (tab "General"), into which "flakes" can be added via normal mapping (tab "Flakes"), which provide the metallic effect.
  • a specular clear coat layer on top of it ("Gloss" tab).

The properties of these layers can be adjusted separately in the specified tabs.

Car paint lives from reflections. You must therefore ensure that there are either bright area/polygon lights or an HDRI-textured sky in the scene that can be reflected in the paint.
