I am struggling to use mix materials (in Rhino Plugin) to develop a clear, colored shrink wrap label for a bottle.
This would be the atypical glossy PVC/PLA sleeve material, with color graphics printed on it.
Clear in most areas, but with packaging graphics in others, glossy all over.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Rick

Thanks so much!
I am still struggling with this in respect to the 'clear film' channel, which has a marble texture in the example above.
Whenever I used a combination of glossy and glossy or specular and glossy, I cannot get the clear area of the label to have reflection, or in the case of specular, to not distort the contents behind due to IOR influence. So the container has opaque fluid contents and the label is clear and glossy, except where color is applied, where the ink is glossy.
