I'm following this tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IK4oFfc_QU&list=WLF0D7BAD16BA07C30

There are three elements involved:

1. The liquid inside
2. The bottle (glass)
3. An offset surface set to glass where the decal is positioned.

If I have layers 2 and 3 on at the same time the liquid becomes black. If I only toggle 2 or 3, then the liquid looks normal. You can see from this image that the top half of the liquid is black... What's going on?
