eSun PLA-Metal is a 1.75mm PLA filament with metal powder blended in, so prints come off the bed with a metallic look and no spraying or polishing. The surface prints smooth and layer lines are hard to see, which makes it a fit for display pieces, props and decorative parts. It is ordinary PLA in most respects: easy to print on a standard machine, but more abrasive than plain PLA and heavier-looking rather than actually strong. Rivals in the metal-fill class offer similar finishes; eSun's version is known for consistent diameter and easy support removal.

Owners like the metal finish and the smooth surface, and most say it prints without fuss on normal PLA settings. The common complaints are nozzle wear and occasional clogs on small nozzles.
The eSun PLA-Metal is a 3D printing filament with a metallic finish. Prints have a heavy metallic look without spraying or post-polishing.
Printed surfaces are smooth, and layer lines are hard to see. The filament has a metallic gloss texture, and its support material peels off easily. It is tough and hard to break.
