I've tried and failed to work out how to do this. I'm trying to create a material that has a smooth reflective surface, but has a blurring refractive property, like a thick liquid/gel.

Anyone have any insight as to how this might be achieved?

Hi,
what about a Layered Material?

You could create your base material with blurring refractive property, then add a Specular Layer on top for the smooth reflective surface.

ciao,
