eSUN's New Bronze PLA Filament

[CaptainObvious]

I picked up a roll of Esun bronze filament at a Makerfaire a couple months ago, I printed a small statue with it and tried to polish it; the results are meh...
It looks kind of metallic out of the printer, but after leaving the print in a tumbler filled with brass screws for about 16 hours (as seen on some videos for the Colorfab bronzefill) it just looks kind of metallic again, nowhere near the results I've seen with the ColorFabb filaments.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong but it just doesn't seem to take a polish.

Thanks for it Captain Obvius! ColorFabb filaments with metal are not easy to polish as they show in their website. But thumbling you should note some diference... so it sounds that eSun "metal" filaments just look metal but don`t have metal powder on it? That`s sucks!!!

Not true. I have eSun's Bronzefil and it definitely has metal powder in it.

I'm sure they do have metal, it's quite dense.
Have you managed to polish prints made with it? I'm trying tumbling again with bigger screws, maybe the ones I used before were to small for the job.
