Obj export not uploading online with chrome reflections?

Hello, I am working on some Javascript stuff so I have been uploading my models into my own Javascript code as well as websites such as skcetchfab.com and p3d.. 

 

I notice that some people are able to upload chrome materials with what seems like mental ray reflections.. I know some websites require different types of files, my question is how should I export my files?

I currently have been saving my stuff into one folder, .obj, mtl, mi and its swatch folder, I could use some help.

 

Thanks!

If you have a blinn or phong shader as a chrome material it should export fine as an obj but it won't work if it is a mental ray chrome shader like a mia material x.
And
FBX file won't export the mia material either, only a maya scene will be able to save a mia x material.
Also keep in mind the a chrome shader is one of the easiest shaders to make in most apps.
Good luck.
