- Jan Clarkon May 15, 2018Acrylic paint will cover glass with a nice primer coat first. But why paint? If you're looking for something opaque, there are a number of designs of plastic stick-on sheets that will do the trick. Check the big box homestore web sites to see what I'm talking about. They come in a bunch of colors and designs.HelpfulReply
- Lindaon May 15, 2018There are films that can be applied to glass to add pattern while making it opaque Available in Amazon. A link attached with paint for glass. You can create a pattern or simulate stained glass if you are inclined to use your artistic talents. Hope this helps.https://www.ebay.com/gds/How-to-Use-Acrylic-Paint-on-Glass-/10000000178571757/g.htmlHelpfulReply
- Deb Kon May 16, 2018Hi, since peel and sticks don't stay put, why not try doing a stencil and using a glass etching kit to fix it up nice, you can buy stencils or rely on you own design! https://www.amazon.ca/Silhouette-Glass-Etching-Starter-Kit/dp/B00EB0B900/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1526487254&sr=8-1&keywords=glass+etching+starter+kitHelpfulReply
- V Smithon May 16, 2018If you want the light but need more privacy you can cover it in clear Gallery Glass. On a vertical surface I put it on in thin coats using the nozzel of the bottle it create a texture. The line also offers different colors as well as pre-made "lead" lines if you wanted to create a leaded glass look. Gallery Glass is very easy to remove if you change you mind.HelpfulReply
