Hi,

 

Try turning up the Final Gather Precision, and increasing the FG Bounces to at least 1.

 

You can also enable Ambient Occlusion on both materials, or render out a seperate Ambient Occlusion pass to add to the final render.

good luck 🙂

I have a question again 🙂

I'm using mental ray

The reflection of light seems soft

Standart photometric lights. I do not want to disturb the position of the lights.

What can I do to make it look sharp?

Is it possible to provide it with light settings? or different method

I do not want to use this method >> self-illumination

If you're using 'Arch&Design materials', you can make the metal material more glossy and turn the reflection value up.
100 reflect would be a mirror, 100 glossy is a perfectly smooth object.

But give it a bit of time, you'll learn this in college hopefully. 🙂
