I’m trying to make wood reflective and shiny to make it look like it has a finish, how do I achieve this? I’ve tried turning up the reflectiveness and nothing happens (I’m kind of a newbie at building ;~;)

Put an invisible light on it that should do the trick.
What I usually do is make a glass part and make it really thin and just put it on top of the wood. Then you can edit the reflectance, and other properties.
Wood without glass:
Wood with glass:
But the problem I find with this is the little layer on top of the wood that you can see since you can only scale it down to 0.05. You could try putting some of it inside of the part so you don’t see it though. I usually keep the transparency over 0.5 but you can mess around and see what you think looks best.
