A tinted mirror, also known as a colored mirror or decorative mirror, is a mirror glass product manufactured using tinted float glass as the substrate instead of clear float glass. The tinted glass is produced by adding metal oxides during the float glass manufacturing process, creating a uniform color throughout the glass thickness. A reflective silver coating is then applied to the back surface through a chemical silvering process, followed by protective paint layers to prevent oxidation and edge blackening.
Tinted mirrors are available in a variety of colors, with bronze, grey, blue, and green being the most popular. Additional colors include gold, pink, violet, wine red, and black. The colored glass substrate gives the mirror its distinctive tint, while the silver coating ensures clear, distortion-free reflection.
It is important to distinguish tinted mirrors from painted (back-painted) mirrors:
| Feature | Tinted Mirror | Painted Mirror (Lacquered) |
|---|---|---|
| Color Source | Color permeates entire glass thickness | Color is surface coating only |
| Reflectivity | High (silver coating on tinted substrate) | High (reflection through clear glass) |
| Color Consistency | Uniform throughout, will not fade | Surface color only |
| Edge Color | Matches the tint (colored edge) | Clear edge (uncoated) |
| Durability | Color is permanent and integral | Coating may scratch or wear |
| Applications | Architectural, decorative, furniture | Interior walls, splashbacks, cabinetry |
KINGSTAR BUILDING GLASS offers tinted mirrors in two primary configurations:
| Feature | Standard Tinted Mirror | Temperable Tinted Mirror |
|---|---|---|
| Coating Type | Standard silver with protective paint | Nano-composite dielectric coating |
| Tempering | Not compatible (paint may degrade) | Fully compatible (500°C heat resistant) |
| Applications | Interior walls, furniture, decorative | Splashbacks, behind stoves, high-heat areas |
| Durability | Standard | Waterproof and humidity-resistant |
| Environmental | Standard | No back paint required |
Temperable tinted mirrors are produced through sputtering coating on tinted glass, using advanced nano-composite dielectric materials that can withstand high temperatures.

A: KINGSTAR BUILDING GLASS offers tinted mirrors in a wide range of colors including bronze, grey, blue, green, gold, pink, violet, wine red, and black. Bronze, grey, blue, and green are the most popular options. Custom colors can also be produced upon request.
Q2: What is the difference between a tinted mirror and a painted mirror?
A: A tinted mirror uses tinted float glass as the substrate, with color permeating the entire glass thickness. The color is permanent and will not fade, and the edges of the glass match the tinted color. A painted mirror uses clear float glass with a paint coating applied to the back surface only. The color is on the surface, and the edges remain clear. Tinted mirrors offer superior color permanence and a more premium appearance.
Q3: Can tinted mirrors be tempered for safety applications?
A: Tinted mirrors are manufactured using standard tinted float glass substrates with silver mirror coating. Tempering is not available for tinted mirrors because the protective paint layers and silver coating cannot withstand the high temperatures of the tempering process. For safety glass requirements, glass must be tempered first as a clear or tinted substrate, and then converted into a mirror through the silvering process.
