Sheen Color – Specifies the color.

Amount – Specifies how much the sheen layer overlays the diffuse color. The higher the amount, the more of the sheen color you get. See the Sheen Amount example below for more information.

Sheen Glossiness – Controls the sharpness of reflections. A value of 1.0 means all of the light reaches the diffuse color, and when the value is smaller, the cloth material looks glossier. See the Sheen Glossiness parameter below for more information.
