6. Change the blend mode of this layer (blending mode) to colour dodge

8. Dublirum this layer 3 times (we now have 4 of the text layer between the first layer and a layer of chromium)

9. Go to the third layer (second from the bottom text layer) and apply to it filter> blur> motion blur with parameters:

angle = 0

distance = 100

10. Go to the fourth layer (third from the bottom text layer) and apply it to filter> blur> motion blur with the following parameters:

angle = -45

distance = 100
