Forgot to add.  That when working with metal material, in order to get the reflective quality don't forget to use "RayTracing" in the Firefly render settings. Set it to 4 bounces.  You also need to have something in the scene along with the metal object to reflect off of.  A sky dome is a great thing, or some props strategically placed off screen.

RDNA has a free sky dome in their free stuff area. 

I don't like to use the dome as a background, so I tend to tilt it up using the X Axis parameter dial until it vanishes from scene window.  I still get the benefits of the sky dome, but it's not being rendered as part of my scene.
