Chrome / metal effect

Chrome type and liquid-metal graphics became a visual signature of 1980s and early-2000s design: polished surfaces with bands of dark and light that suggest a reflected horizon. Colour gradients mapped to those bands create gold, copper or silver finishes.

This effect converts the shapes in your photo into reflective, banded metal. Choose between five metals (silver, gold, copper, ice and holographic), then use Bands to control how many reflection stripes appear and Smoothing to soften or sharpen them.
