Hi DaveR so not possible?! I seen some plugins for example UV colors or Sun but no one go near of this ?

That’s why there are a variety of rendering applications. Some of them work like extensions in SketchUp but you said you don’t want that.

because i love the Magic Simplicity of SketchUp

The metallic look is not a color but a reflectance. SketchUp does not support this, but renderers do.

so is one of thes Softares Rendering that is easy to use (the must easy )??? thnx

[image] WorkSkp: easy to use Try them and see.

Hi eneroth3 You right sorry for my English to explain things

Create your own shiny metallic texture (metalized look) and apply it as a material in SketchUp [How to create Glitter with Photoshop] or more advanced option, bake your texture [SimLab Composer : Basics of Texture Baking]
