Rust-Oleum Frosted Glass Spray Paint

It worked good for me and probably will for you. I purchased this particular brand and product because it was the lowest price offering for frosted glass spray paint. Amazon was also the lowest price by quite a large margin compared to local big box stores on this item. This Rust-Oleum frosted glass spray paint covered well and resulted in a pretty good uniform coverage of my glass windows. You can no longer see through them yet a very good amount of light still comes through. I only covered the inside of the windows. I figure that the outside would be more likely to get scratches or some other damage to the paint as time goes on and only one side needs to be coated in order to get the desired effect. This paint smells very much of chemical like acetone or finger nail polish remover if you are familiar with those. Maybe its toluene. Its a very potent smell and very flammable also so have plenty of open ventilation like a couple of large open windows or doors - to the outside of the building, not just into other rooms. I had two doors to the room open to the outside and a pedestal fan going to suck the fumes out and it smelled very strongly of the odor for half an hour or so after I finished spraying. The odor was so strong that I held my breath while spraying and then ran out and caught my breath and then went back in and sprayed another pane until I was done. I did 2 coats on each pane of glass to ensure even coverage at the edges. I did one window and have 3/4 or more of the can left. Result: now people on the street can't look through my side porch windows all the way through and beyond. I like it.

Worked perfectly for me. Made the Frost Mirror

Easy to use. Worked perfectly. Nice finished appearance. Definitely need adequate ventilation.

I bought this spray-on product without great expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised by its ease of use. While its best to try to spray as even a coat as possible, small inconsistencies can be overcome with a second spraying (in fact, more than one coat is probably going to be necessary in most cases, since just one layer is too transparent and will show inconsistencies). My photo was taken of a piece of old glass, partially sprayed, and layed against a window with a view outside. On the far left, you can see the opaqueness with two quick sprays. The far right shows the glass unsprayed. Toward the middle, you can see the unevenness of one coat. I did this test quickly -- with more attention, I could have achieved a better result. The product has really awful fumes, but since I was only spraying a few 10" x 15" glass panels, I was able to spray each layer while holding my breath. I live in a NYC apartment building, so spraying outside was not feasible. I did the job in my bathtub - with the window open - , using an old plastic shower curtain liner as a backdrop in case of over-spraying. The pinhole release on the can however, was quite accurate, and did not spray more than an inch or two beyond the intended area (holding the can about 12" from the glass surface). Stay Safe - Always wear protective eyewear. I wore a pair of disposable gloves too. After each spray, I quickly left the bathroom, closed the door, and waited thirty minutes before applying another layer. The odor remained noticeable in the bathroom for several hours. However, the glass panels retained no odor after they had dried. Those with pulmonary concerns should probably consult the directions carefully. Definitely not for use/storage around infants and children in my opinion.. A few days later, I wiped a panel with a water-dampened cloth--nothing came off on the rag, and after the glass dried, the opaqueness seemed unaltered. However, I'd be careful about using stronger glass-cleaning products without testing first. Also, My result is on real glass. Don't know how it would work on plexiglass-type products. Maybe others have commented?

I really like this product. It was very easy to use and two cans for one sliding glass door. Standard size was way more than enough. However, definitely follow the instructions because I did that for the first side and things went very well. I did not for the second side. I went very quickly and, well it wasn't great, LOL. I can tell you that it is so much more cost effective than purchasing the cling to make something frosted and there's so much more that you can do than just one project, so I fully endorse this. However, I more endorse following the instructions on the can. The whole shaking it for 2 minutes and applying slowly and, as well as which pattern to spray... Definitely matters. Even though I didn't do great on my second side, I am still looking around here wondering what I can use it on next. The lines in the photo on the door are actually straight although they appear off in the video. At least I did use a level for that part. 😃

This is by far the easiest way to create a frosted glass look. I used it on three Edison-style lamps with clear glass shades, and within minutes they looked like they came with professionally frosted glass. It's very easy to apply. Hold the can about 8 to 9 inches away and spray a light, even coat. You'll actually see the frosting appear as you spray. The transformation is pretty amazing. Dries very quickly. Make sure youre doing this outside the fumes are VERY strong. In my photos, you'll see a before shot with the clear glass and an after shot with the frosted finish. The tiny specks you see are part of the glass itself to create a rainy or textured effect, not from the spray. Best of all, it wasn't messy at all. If you're looking for an easy way to frost glass, I definitely recommend giving this a try.

Rust-Oleum Frosted Glass spray paint worked very well to provide the frosting look I wanted on an otherwise clear plastic container. I applied one coat and let it dry about 15 minutes then applied another coat and my project turned out just the way I envisioned it. It's best to wear a mask because the paint fumes are strong, and spray it on a nonwindy day! Great product for crafting projects.

This stuff does work. It does require several coats to cover the window to limit visibility. My only problem with this product is that it is a bear to remove. I put this on about two years ago. The can says it can be removed with acetone or lacquer thinner. I tried acetone first because it's the least toxic option. All the acetone did was make streaks in the paint. Next I tried the lacquer thinner. Boy oh boy, does this stuff stink! I put the lacquer thinner on a rag and did my best trying to scrub it off, but like the acetone it bearly touched it. After covering the whole window with lacquer thinner. I waited a few minutes. Then took a plastic scraper to it. This is when I finally started to see it come off. I still struggled immensely with the edges. I'm currently taking a break. Then I'll go back and tackle the edges again. I still have a whole other window to do. My advice is, if you plan to use this to cover your windows, please make sure that it is a permanent decision. I am a renter, so I have to take it off before I leave. Also, in the event that you do need to remove it, I would skip the acetone and go straight to the lacquer thinner. Keep in mind that even with the lacquer thinner, you will still need to do some heavy duty scraping. Lastly, and most importantly, make sure you use proper PPE to remove this stuff (gloves, eye protection, and a mask). Please make sure you are working in a well ventilated area if using lacquer thinner. Good luck.

You have to be at sufficient distance from the glass otherwise excess agent will drip and will leave unwanted mark. Needs a bit practice. Area must be well ventilated as it's smell can choke you. I mean it. Though result is pretty good.

Good product just be careful how you use it

It’s a great item and solution but it would require some skill to make sure it’s done nicely.

Product is OK, i used it on my one aquascape project, a submerged frosted mirror as hardscape and river effect and after a month it started to remove the frost effect but again it do the job, no complaint

Each coat dries quickly, reduces glass transparency. The strong smell is also notable. just what I needed
