white frost

[Guest expertint]

This has happened twice to me lately.Contractor wants white frost, not opaque ,to hide a buildout next to the windows.If its a wall that blocks all the light then you can't see the studs etc.But if it's a freezer that's stainless steel and right next to the window you can sort of see it.Now we have to layer it with something,but what?? They like the light but don't want opaque.Should we put another layer on all the windows.I don't think it will pass with just doing two of the eight windows, as the two will look different.So we have frost..nrmps2 ..what shall we add? Heat is not an issue and didn't notice if its tempered. Thanks

Stepped in it did ya?

Try a small area of double and see what the result is, and if the contractor will accept it

What would you would have used genious??

[Guest Olfablade]

white opaque, but I was suggesting you try a small area of doubling it up so you find out whether it would work, genious

[Guest expertint]

do you want to finish it up for me

maybe you could experiment with some kind of white material between the freezer and the glass. something more like the color of your frost could reduce the freezer's image enough to work. it would cost nothing to try. outside of that you would be looking at another layer on all windows. ouch... I do like the suggestion someone made for dusted crystal.

you will always see shadows as long as you have semi-transparent material on the window. Solid white is the olny way to go if it has to be white with no shadowing...
