I'm sure we've got enough folks is this group who have sandblasted. Need to
make some clear glass into frosted for a light fixture. Is is reasonable to
think I can sandblast the back and get a nice even effect across the glass
(round piece, like a salad bowl, 24" across, 10" deep.
Thanks.
Steve.

Yep, its that easy, Just tape off areas not to be sandblasted. For tall
drinking glasses I stuffed them with paper then taped the opening closed. I
even blasted a one inch line around mayo jars to use for labelling.

Even better, etch it with commercial glass etching liquid, available at any
stained glass hobby shop.

In what way is any process that involves handling hydrofluoric acid
"better" than something that's a simple mechanical process ? That is
one hell of a nasty chemical, one I certainly won't handle.
