How Do I Get A Glossy Finish On Fondant?

I have to make a cell phone cake tomorro night and the customer requested a dark blue cell phone with zebra print with a sheen finish! I think I can do everything, but the sheen finish. Seems like someone once told me she used clear vanilla and painted it on the fondant for a shiny finish. Is this true? any help is very much appreciated!
This has always worked perfectly for me. Mix 50% vodka and 50% corn syrup. Paint directly onto fondant object. It will be sticky to the touch at first, but after 24 hours, it dries to a shiny finish.

I spray a little bit of PAM cooking spray on a plate, then brush it on with a paint brush.
Use a steam iron on it and "steam" it. Makes it really glossy without having to paint on it and risk colors bleeding or showing brush strokes.
all very interesting ideas and all very different! thanks! I don't have a steam iron so i guess trying that is out. Does anyone have a picture of something they have done like this?
