Does anyone have any advice for making a frosted plastic? I've made a good start but can't work out the diffuse colour absorption.  (Reference image is Octane). I thought that it would be SSS, but no matter what I try the discs behind it always seem clear.

Play w/ material surface roughness/glossiness.

Corona doesn't feature volume (SSS) roughness.

Opening up you file beanzvision there's a missing plugin called Corona Physical. I haven't come across this before. Which also means I can't use the textures.
is it a V7 thing or something else?
