Sand blasting is for heavy duty work on sturdy material, steel rims, steel frames, etc. Blasting with a glass media is for more delicate material so not to warp or damage a surface like body panels.
Seek alternatives if possible. We believe glass beads damage tile. Even if that weren't a problem, what about swimming in water containing tiny glass pieces? Consider dry ice blasting as an alternative. Very few companies have dry ice blasting systems. Another alternative is mineral blasting with magnesium sulfate. This mineral is softer than the tile. Therefore, it can never damage it. It is not as widely available as glass beading, but you should be able to find a company using this process if you are in the southwest (CA, AZ, NV). Search the internet for "pool tile cleaning magnesium sulfate".
Sandblasted glass is created by physically blasting the surface of the glass with abrasive materials to create a frosted appearance, while frosted glass is achieved by etching the surface of the glass with chemicals or acids. Sandblasted glass typically has a more textured finish compared to the smoother finish of frosted glass.
The difference between auto glass and regular glass is that auto glass has a thin layer of flexible clear plastic placed between two (or more) layers of glass. The film holds the glass in place when it breaks and will lessen the injuries from broken glass.
