3D scanning: black plastic or metal utilitarian objects?

I’ve just spent the past year working part-time for a reverse engineering company that had a Faro Edge ScanArm HD. A lot of what we scanned was quite reflective so we used Athletes Foot Spray to reduce the reflections to get a better scan. It might not be as good as the proper stuff but it’s a lot cheaper! It’s pretty easy to remove from the part afterwards with just a wipe.
