Default ROS to etch glass?

Vinyl sign makers use an adhesive vinyl that looks like etched
glass. It's easier and cheaper than doing it with a sander,
and most people won't know the difference.

Anyone have any luck using a random orbital sander to etch glass? If
so, what kind of paper would be best and which grit? This glass is to
go into my new kitchen cabinet divided light doors as the patterned
glass I had planned on using proved to be to expensive an option. I
can sand blast but thought the ROS might be faster and give a more
consistent pattern. Thanks
