This page provides details on the V-Ray Toon Specular Render Element.
Overview
The Toon Specular Render Element is an image that stores Toon Specular reflection (highlights) information calculated from the VRayToonMtl.
The brighter the area, the more Toon highlight reflection the object exhibits in the render. Toon Specular highlights will be colored if the Reflection Color parameter of a material is colored.
The Toon Specular RE is included in the Specular RE. It can be subtracted from the main back-to-beauty composite, graded, and added back in.
UI Path: ||Display Render Settings button|| > Render Elements tab > Toon Specular

When you render the scene, the added render elements listed in the column on the right, will also render, which can be viewed from the VFB window's channel drop-down menu.
