This varnished wood surface was one of 9 materials made for my video about 'Image to PBR' technique:

So far it was the easiest and the most efficient way to generate this type of material. materials. Since the source surface was very consistent and the height isnt really relevant, the result material turned very well. I would recommend this technique to generate this type of materials. The surface was captured using crosspolarisation.. I hope to cover this subject in details soon for those who are interested.
If anyone is interested going deeper into material creation details please join me on my youtube channel:
