I have 8 small windows in my garage. They are about 16x10 and clear. I was reading online that one can sandblast them to give them an "etched" look. I want to be able to make the clear windows frosted so that people can't see in.

I am currently using the spray frost that you can buy at Lowes/HD but after a month the sun starts to make the coating crackle and spot...

I'm not sure what this would cost, and I can purchase materials used and pay for your time. I don't expect it to be free. If I had sand blasting equipment I would do this myself as I can't imagine it being hard, would actually be a fun DIY type thing for me.

Figured I'd ask to see if anyone local in the Northern VA has done anything or could help me out with this small project. I'm not sure the media that should be used as I would not want to crack or break the glass. I would disassemble and bring the smaller glass rectangles to your location.

Thanks,
-Nigel

I ended up going to Lowes and purchasing the Gila frosted adhesive window film. Surprisingly it has achieved the exact look I am going for!

No longer needed for services.

Thanks for all the info!
