How do you make frosted glass in VRAY?
Frosted Glass We can achieve this easily by manipulating the Glossiness parameter. Let’s reduce the Reflection Glossiness to 0.8, making the reflections blurrier. Set the Refraction Glossiness to 0.8 – this makes the actual “frosty” effect of the material. You can play with this amount to reach the desired look.
