Thanks for the welcome and info.

The object in question is approx 8cm diameter with a depth of around 3cm, which was photographed with focal length of 60mm, f/2.8, exposure 1/400th. 15 shots were taken in RAW. Stacking wasn't done in camera but will be applied in Photoshop.

Essentially I want to apply object select and past onto a flat background colour, then take advantage of the fact that I have 'slices' representing focus points so that the contrast/exposure is increased from the back of the object (darker) to the top of the object (lighter) incrementally.

From what you're saying, it sounds like I can just adjust each layer to suit before auto-blending the stack? I wonder if this will impact on the auto-blend algorithm in any capacity. Sounds simple, maybe I'm over-thinking it?!

Thanks
