Shower Door Art Glass

Frosted glass is an opaque, attractive glass type. Shading is applied either in full or a design, which allows light in, but blurs the shape of items behind the glass.

This glass produces a white hue to the glass surface, reflectively emitting a soft light. It also is perfect for adding privacy in shower areas.

With frosted glass, only one side of the glass gets frosted, but there are two ways to make frosted glass: acid-etching and sand-blasting.

Acid-etched frosted glass is created with the use of abrasives such as acid treatment to create the frosted glass look.

Sandblasted frosted glass is created by using a high speed machine that sprays the glass panel with sand, walnut husks or other materials.

Sandblasted frosted glass offers the ability to create design effects. You can pick the level of glass opaqueness from light, medium, to heavy. Sandblasting makes it possible to “frost” sections of a glass pane, such as creating privacy strips or patterns.
