Tons of different metals, which one Mike? Do you have an example of the finished effect you're after?
Here's a mixture of LE's (noise, bumpmap and curves) to produce a die-cast metal effect.
This is fully text editible
Here is an example of a metal effect similar to what Steve has done except I applied just a bevel and then used the embossing filter on it. You can find the embossing filter under live effects > Stylization. Between the adjustments you can make with the bevel tool and the adjustments you can make with the embossing it's very customizable. And like Steve's die cast effect the text is still editable as text.
Thanks for all the examples ..... I have a client that wants a metal looking text as a logo.
Steel looking I think...... are there any videos on line .
The ones you have done are in my text bank if you dont mind .....

Paul Saumure (psaumure) came up with a technique using the extrusion tool to create a nice steel effect See this thread
I have now got an Idea of what is wanted after all my efforts ....its attached.
How do I go about this .....all I need is it saying Stadium value Cars
Thanks for any advice

Mike, this video I created a while ago using DP6 should help you get that affect.
Looks like you've got plenty of excellent options here Mike. Also Roman did a very good metallic effect back in 2001.
