Hi all, does anyone know how to create an aluminium foil material for pleated blinds like on the link below.

Hi, can you post a better photo how it's supposed to look? In the one you attached it looks like some bright diffuse thing.

Hmm... That looks like a typical "chrome" type material. So I would try with something like:

diffuse 0
reflection level 0,8 - 1
reflection color pure white
reflection ior 6-12
reflection glossiness 0,8 - 1

If it's aluminium and you want to make it look brighter, you could try increasing diffuse level a bit. It will give it a touch of "dusty" or "mat" effect.

You can try downloading the basic materials set and then tweaking the metal material to your needs:
