Photoshop: Sleek Gloss Text EffectPosted by Branin on August 11th, 2010 Learn How to Recreate This Text Effect in a Few Short Steps This effect works very well on light or dark backgrounds but in this tutorial we will use a light, just for demonstration. So, we'll start by creating a 300 x 150 image with a white background. You will want to use a bold type of text, I use a text known as Myriad Pro (click here to download) Start by entering the text you want. After, go into the Blending Options of that text layer, enter these settings. Also, quick advice on doing the mirror effect in case anyone is wondering, Duplicate your text layer, Edit > Transform > Flip Vertical, move under your first text layer and change the opacity to 10% - 25% depending on how you want it.
