Windows 10: Models smoothening completely in 3D Builder

Hi,


I am hoping someone can help.


I have a 3D file which is fairly low poly.


In 3D builder, the 'smoothing' filter makes the object look perfect, nice crisp edges, but smoother surfaces.

As far as I know there's no UV or other data that's giving it the 'look' of being smooth, but when I try and use the smooth function, even at the lowest setting, everything is just smushed into a softer version of the mode with no crisp edges.


Is there any way to apply the smoothing filter to the acftual model then save it?


I want to 3D print a couple of items for friends, but don't want to have to load each file into ZBrush and smooth them all by hand when 3D builder appears to be able to do the job quickly.


Any advice?

How does someone get their 3D Printing business listed as a place where 3D Builder users can get their 3D model built?
