6 Sandblasted Frosted Glass Effects on GLUECHIP Glass
This is How our Sandblasted Frosted Glass Effects Look on a
GLUECHIP BACKGROUND (for Semi-Privacy)
A Gluechip Finish is a sparkling texture that looks like frost during the winter or a fern-like pattern. This finish is semi-private because objects behind it become blurred when 10-12” away from the glass, and also because each design element is surrounded by an 1/8” clear pinstripe. Objects can be seen thru the clear pinstripes when right up against the glass peering thru; however, from a distance, all you see is the beautiful shimmer of the gluechip, with light, shapes and colors coming thru. See design examples at the bottom of this page that demonstrate this.
