We present a new method that can represent the reflectance of metallic paints accurately using a two-layer reflectance model with sampled microfacet distribution functions. We model the structure of metallic paints simplified by two layers: a binder surface that follows a microfacet distribution and a sub-layer that also follows a facet distribution. In the sub-layer, the diffuse and the specular reflectance represent color pigments and metallic flakes respectively. We use an iterative method based on the principle of Gauss-Seidel relaxation that stably fits the measured data to our highly non-linear model. We optimize the model by handling the microfacet distribution terms as a piecewise linear non-parametric form in order to increase its degree of freedom. The proposed model is validated by applying it to various metallic paints. The results show that our model has better fitting performance compared to the models used in other studies. Our model provides better accuracy due to the non-parametric terms employed in the model, and also gives efficiency in analyzing the characteristics of metallic paints by the analytical form embedded in the model. The non-parametric terms for the microfacet distribution in our model require densely measured data but not for the entire BRDF(bidirectional reflectance distribution function) domain, so that our method can reduce the burden of data acquisition during measurement. Especially, it becomes efficient for a system that uses a curved-sample based measurement system which allows us to obtain dense data in microfacet domain by a single measurement.
