Dear friends,
How to give a shining appearance to an object in sketch up?
Regards,
Arun
I’ve found that using the paint color called “Metal Silver” makes things shiny, but I haven’t done a ton of experimentation otherwise…
The most common way to do this is via a render. If such option isnt available, rhen any texture with a high gloss should do the trick.
As to a real mirror effect, you must use a rendering application (or a rendering plugin) or fake it.

Oh wow, what sort of plugin allows you to do this?
This’ll work great for my bridge model once I add the water.
Thanks guys. Looks like , I have to go forward with rendering plugin in
sketch up to give shiny appearance to surfaces. Please correct me, if I am
wrong.

My image illustrates a fake reflection using the “Through the looking-glass” approach. No plugin.
