    Illustrator can't make something print off shiney or glittery, although maybe with the right technique it could give a similar impression.

    I wouldn't know how to give the similar impression in illustrator though, sorry.

    so do you think he can just show the effect to the printer and they can sort it out?

    Speak to the client about it.
    Or you can wait about and see if anyone else has any thoughts about it.
