White Painted Glass | Opaque Decorative Architectural Glass from KINGSTAR BUILDING GLASS

 

KINGSTAR BUILDING GLASS White Painted Glass is a premium opaque architectural glass created by applying a durable, high-quality paint or ceramic frit coating to the back surface of high-clarity float glass. The result is a glass with a crisp, uniform, brilliant white color that is fully opaque, offering a clean, modern aesthetic for both interior and exterior applications. Unlike body-tinted glass where color permeates the entire thickness, painted glass achieves its rich color through a surface

What is White Painted Glass?

White painted glass—also known as back-painted glass, lacquered glass, or opaque glass—is a decorative flat glass produced by applying a durable coating to one surface of high-quality float glass. The coating, which can be a high-performance lacquer or a ceramic frit, is applied using precision techniques and then cured through a baking or heat-treating process to permanently bond it to the glass surface.

Unlike body-tinted glass, where color is achieved by adding pigments throughout the glass melt, white painted glass starts with clear or ultra-clear float glass and adds the color as a surface layer. This results in a brilliant, highly reflective, and uniformly opaque finish that cannot be achieved with tinted glass. The coating is applied to the back surface, meaning the glass is viewed from the uncoated side—protecting the paint from scratches, wear, and environmental damage.

White painted glass is produced using clear or ultra-clear low-iron float glass substrates, ensuring a bright white appearance with minimal color tint. The glass can be finished with either a glossy or matte appearance. The paint is resistant to humidity, making it ideal for use in high-moisture environments such as kitchens and bathrooms.

Key Features

  • Crisp, Uniform White Color: Brilliant, opaque white finish with consistent color across every panel
  • Superior Opacity: Fully opaque—conceals structural elements, mechanical components, and storage areas
  • High Durability: Coating is resistant to scratching, chipping, peeling, fading, and chemical attack
  • Moisture and Humidity Resistance: Ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and other high-humidity environments
  • Heat and UV Resistance: Withstands high temperatures and prolonged sun exposure without degradation
  • Sleek Aesthetic: Glossy, reflective finish adds sophistication and brightness to any space
  • Easy to Clean: Smooth, non-porous surface requires only a simple wipe-down
  • Permanent Bond: Coating is fused to the glass surface—will not delaminate or peel
  • Processing Compatible: Can be cut, tempered, laminated, and used in insulating glass units

Coating Technologies

KINGSTAR BUILDING GLASS offers white painted glass in two primary coating technologies:

Coating TypeDescriptionKey CharacteristicsBest For
Ceramic FritInorganic coating fused to glass at high temperatureExtremely durable, scratch-resistant, UV-stable, permanent bondExterior facades, spandrel glazing, high-traffic areas
High-Performance LacquerOrganic coating baked onto glass surfaceBrilliant color, smooth finish, humidity-resistantInterior applications, furniture, splashbacks, wall cladding

Processing Options

Processing TypeDescriptionBenefits
Post-TemperableCoating applied before heat treatment, then temperedAllows for cutting and fabrication before tempering; coating cures during tempering for maximum durability
Pre-Tempered (Heat-Treated)Glass tempered first, then coating appliedSuitable for applications where glass is already in final size
LaminatedCan be laminated with PVB interlayersAdds safety and acoustic performance
Insulating Glass Units (IGU)Can be incorporated into double or triple glazingAdds thermal insulation and energy efficiency

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the difference between white painted glass and white tinted (body-tinted) float glass?

A: White painted glass starts with clear or ultra-clear float glass and has a durable coating applied to the back surface, creating a brilliant, opaque, and highly reflective white finish. The color is on the surface and is viewed through the clear glass, which protects the paint from damage. White painted glass is 100% opaque and offers superior color brilliance and consistency. Body-tinted white glass (which is rare due to technical limitations) would have color pigments mixed throughout the glass melt, resulting in a translucent rather than opaque appearance. Painted glass is the preferred choice for applications requiring full opacity and a bright, reflective white finish.

Q2: Can white painted glass be used outdoors and what coating type is recommended?

A: Yes, white painted glass can be used for exterior applications including spandrel glazing, facade cladding, and curtain walls. For exterior use, KINGSTAR BUILDING GLASS recommends ceramic frit coating, which is fused to the glass at high temperature and provides superior resistance to scratching, chipping, peeling, fading, and chemical attack. Ceramic frit coatings are also UV-stable and weather-resistant, ensuring long-lasting performance. For interior applications, high-performance lacquer coatings provide brilliant color and humidity resistance.

Q3: Can white painted glass be tempered, laminated, or used in insulating glass units?

A: No, lacquered painted glass cannot be tempered because the organic coating decomposes and carbonizes at the high temperatures required for tempering. However, laminating and insulating glass unit fabrication are possible. The painted glass can be laminated with PVB or SGP interlayers and can also be used in insulating glass units, with the painted surface facing the cavity to protect the coating. All cutting, drilling, and other processing must be completed before painting, as no further fabrication is possible after the coating is applied.






Back painted glass is a unique use of glass that has been growing in popularity in recent years. It is essentially exactly what it sounds like- glass that has been painted on the back side. That way, from the front side, the glass is no longer translucent, but instead a solid color.


Thickness: 3mm 4mm 5mm 6mm

size: 1830*2440, 3300*2140mm


The applications for back painted glass vary widely and it is commonly used in both residential and commercial buildings. One of the main uses of back painted glass is simply as a design element. Glass has always added a unique look in any building project which usually translates to a sleek, modern appearance. Back painted glass takes this one step further in that the cool, hard surface remains, but color is added to match any palette.
