Also try cross polarization. Mount two flash units with polarizers oriented the same
way. Mount a polarizer on your lens at 90-degrees polarization. Hopefully you have
TTL cause your gonna lose a lot of light. This technique is used to photograph
paintings without getting glare. Might work. For the polarizers for the flash units,
try a scientific catalog.

Maybe "surround" them with five or more light sources or reflectors,
then take the shot through a polarizing filter turned to polarize as
much as it can?
