6: Hit Ctrl+F untill you get the desired effect

*Note: if there is layer transparecy than Duplicate the layer and flatten it afew time to get rid of it.*


*You can duplicate the finished layer and darken some areas and set the mode to overlay for a better result, Use the Patch tool if you get too many White or Brightened Areas.

And Your Finished!
