# init(floatLiteral:)

Creates a clearcoat object using a single value.

```
init(floatLiteral value: Float)
```

## Parameters

`value`

The clearcoat value to use for the entity.

## Discussion

A clearcoat is a separate layer of transparent specular highlights
used to simulate a clear transparent coating, like the paint on a
car, or the surface of lacquered objects. Use this initializer to
create an object to specify the amount of clearcoat for a material
using a single value that applies to the entire material.
