In this tutorial I will show you how to build a Car paint shader in Maya. Though this tutorial is for Maya, you may use similar concepts in other packages as well. The terms may be different. To create a car paint shader we will be using a layered shader. There will be two layers in this shader, one for the color and the other for the reflections and highlights. Think of it in terms of a real car paint. You have a base color and on top of it a clear coat which adds the gloss to the paint

Let’s see what covers by this Land Rover Defender Workshop Manual?
Service Manual | Owners Guide | Operating Instructions | INTRODUCTION FUEL HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
The following information provides basic precautions which must be observed if fuel is to be handled safely. It also outlines the other areas of risk which must not be ignored. This information is issued for basic guidance only, and in any case of doubt, appropriate enquiries should be made of your local Fire Officer or Fire Department. Fuel vapour is highly flammable and in confined spaces is also very explosive and toxic and when diluted with air becomes a readily ignitable mixture. The vapour is heavier than air and will always fall to the lowest level. It can readily be distributed throughout a workshop by air current, consequently, even a small spillage of fuel is very dangerous. Always have a fire extinguisher containing FOAM CO2 GAS, or POWDER close at hand when handling fuel, or when dismantling fuel systems and in areas where fuel containers are stored.
