Hi,
Maybe you can look at some of my procedural textures. This one:

http://www.filterforge.com/filters/5412.html

 in particular may do what you are looking for. This uses surface maps
and an HDRI lighting environment to modify the texture's surface
characteristics. The surface texture can be controlled by the user to
mirror smooth to a brushed finish. If you need it to be modified in
some way leave a comment in the comment section and I will see what I
can do.
The plug-in required for generating these texture has a free trial.

Good luck,
Ron
