RedPhantom, hi and I apologize for the delay in getting back to you. between work, kids, life in general, finding spare time can be a challenge for sure. So I followed your directions as best I could and came out with something I can't explain. Or rather, it would be better to explain with pictures. So I'm uploading pics that show how I made my simple, but very effective chrome shader, how I combined it with your instructions, and the result. Also I'm including pics of the mask and texture map. When you have time, can you please take a look and help me figure out what i did wrong? Thanks,

Steve
