I understand that layering materials can be quite effective. I'm not sure how this is done. For instance, if you wanted a high gloss finish on a wood material, would you actually create geometry in solidworks as a separate surface on top of the wood and apply for instance, a clear coat material to that? Or can you actually build up layers of materials on a single surface? I tried to do that, but one material just over-rode the other.
Thanks,

Not sure why you would want to layer materials but - yes you can.. You need to edit the material appearance and change the transparency, for a true picture the transparency needs to be less the further down you go..
