To replace a material hover the mouse over any material listed on the left hand side of the Material Editor dialog and the material Type symbol will change to a meatball menu (3 horizontal dots). The best radiator reflector on the market is the nifty radiator reflector kit from Radflek which provides enough reflective foil to insulate between 3-6 radiators in your home (depending how large they are of course). But because these materials are not 100% lightproof they will let light trough and for some that is not acceptable.

Panda plastic wraps come in rolls and you can staple or glue them to any surfaces you want but they tend to be on the expensive side and if you get them too close to your light source they can easily melt. There are various versions of this material that you can get but the best ones are those that have some kind of a texture that will help with light reflection and will stop wrinkles from forming. The Clearcoat material imitates the type of paint that you find on car bodies. So, essentially the Clearcoat is a transparent resin material, and the color is defined via the Albedo option in the Material Editor window. But retroreflective materials are not just about safety and visibility. The Scotchlite range of products offers you the opportunity to make bold, exciting fashion statements when you want to get noticed. In addition, the quality of 3M™ Scotchlite™ Reflective Material ensures that, even after several washes, your favourite retroreflective garments will create the same effect on those around you every time you wear them. Each Scalar Parameter needs a unique name and default value. Select each Scalar Paramater, then rename them and set their Default Value in the Details Panel as shown below.White paint is used in larger as well as smaller growing spaces and it can reflect up to 80% of the incoming light and for such a cheap price it is a great solution. Air has a refractive index of 1.0 – so light rays travel through it in a straight line -, water has an index of 1.33, window glass 1.52, and, for example diamonds have an index of 2.42 – they bend light quite heavily. The “Generic” material type is suited for any materials that aren’t supposed to be rendered as grass blades, water surface, or have translucency applied. Two or more flashlights, including one that is very bright (The more powerful your flashlight, the better! It is meant to mimic a car headlight.) This value controls the amount by which light is being reflected when hitting a non-metallic surface at a steep angle, as opposed to light that’s hitting it rather from the side.

Was your expectation correct? Are you surprised by the results? Does this change what you might wear as a pedestrian at night or in low-light conditions? the more reflective a material becomes (this generally occurs on the outline of objects). Blend A controlling factor to adjust how the blending happens between the reflective and non-reflective areas. Depth Maximum allowed number of light inter-reflections. In your case, the window may look slightly different – the reason is that the Enscape Material Editor will always display the material that is currently selected in SketchUp – as long as the material is used in your model.It’s between exposed type and buried type. With more air layer, the route of light will not change. If your scene contains many reflective objects and/or if the camera zooms in on such a reflective object,
