You can also use the dodge and burn tool. The dodge can make the pixels look brighter and on the other hand, the burn makes the pixels look darker. So use the burn tool in making shadows while dodge in making highlights. Please remember in using realistic light effects to effectively make your image stand out.

For the metal effect tool. Try using the blending option of the layer and select gradient overlay. Choose the color black and white to produce a metal effect. This too can make it look 3D especially if your image is something to do with metals.
