Frosting a Window
Mix Epsom Salt with stale beer until the beer can hold no more. Then,
apply the mixture to the glass. When it dries the window will be
frosted.

I just had a rollup garage door installed that has windows which will
allow
daylight (good) and a view of the electronics and tools in my garage
(bad).
The windows that came with the door are clear glass. What can I use
to
obscure the view from outside without losing the natural light?
Some searching came up with two potential solutions: 1) Spray on
fogging
paint, apparently available from craft stores; and 2) Aquarium
crystal
paint.
I believe that any tinted or reflective film will work except that, at
night, someone would be able to see into the lit garage. That's
almost a
good enough fix, but not quite. I also understand that I cannot add
any
appreciable weight to the door, so that rules out adding a thin sheet
of
bubbled light fixture panes (like on flourecent lights).
I'd appreciate any shared experiences on this. Thanks.
