The **Coat Specular RE** can be used to enhance the highlights of the materials' coat. This is done by increasing the render element's contrast and applying it to the composition inside the [VFB](https://docs-chaos.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/VMAX/pages/113578174) with an **Add** blend mode. In this example, a [Cryptomatte](https://docs-chaos.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/VMAX/pages/113576898) mask is used to isolate the apples and they are edited in compositing.
