It's for marketing purposes/ what my boss wants me to do. If we had the space I would be able to set up a proper studio to photography the items with that shine naturally. But I don't so I work with what I have, editing software and a backlog of old photos I need to edit. Either way it is not a waste of time for me and I appreciate the help from others in learning new skills in editing rather than being told not to bother. It is never a waste of time to learn a new skill and gain knowledge.

Hello, I am a nebbie at using the software and the forms so any help would be appreciated. What I am trying to do is add a Metal Shine to an image. We are a manufacturing company and so we have metal products and when I photograph them some of the surfaces are more matte and my boss wants them to look less matte and more, well shiny, bright, inviting. I'd share the specific photo but I can't so below are some links to kinda what I am talking about.

You know the right general direction to head. Thank you so much for your help!
