Hi Friends! Thanks for the help but to be very honest now I am more confused,my fault as I am a learner and alpha planes/channel I dont know about,let me make it simple,I have this part to which I have applied a metal paint shader (check the attached image)and I want to apply the above show number on this part so that only numbers are visible and none of the white part shows up on the 3d surface.so how to do that? And guys thanks a lot for your help!
