Glass cabinet doors

Hi!
My husband and I recently purchased a new Alliance Avenue 35rks. We love the layout and the storage space in this RV but I am struggling with how to obscure the stuff kept in the glass cabinets. There is a light frost coating on the glass but it is still see thru. Any ideas of what we can use make it look more opaque so you can’t see everything in the cabinet but still look nice. For some reason it is most noticeable in the glass cabinets over the TV area.

Also we noticed one of the cabinets had markings on the glass from the frost finish that is really noticeable - assuming this was done during process of adding the frost to the glass but thankfully I reached out the alliance and they have agreed to provide a replacement.

There are a few options.

DIY spray glass frosting may make it darker by making the coating thicker.

Cling film

Any basically any spray paint.

we have a 2024 Avenue 32 RLS that we used actual vinyl sticky paper on the inside and blacked out all of our glass. one of the hardest things to make sure is to see no bubbles behind it but it can be done anyways. that's just what we did. I would love to remove the glass and put a gloss black glass in each of those cabinets but I don't know how to take it apart

Our 385FL had lightly tinted glass in the doors around the TV, we used the cling film to completely black them out. Like was said above, be sure to squeegee our all of the air when you install them wet and they come out looking great.

Cling film is the simplest and reversible. Aesthetically, with that lighter casework color palette, black may be pretty contrasting. So just be aware of that. Thinking a lighter gray may be subtler but still fully conceal the contents. Maybe you could test a few colors before buying enough for all of them. Good Luck!

We tried some cling wrap but when we returned to camper a few days later it had all fallen off. Camper is stored in covered shop so better insulation than being completely outside. Although I did use windex on glass prior to applying cling so maybe that was reason it didn’t adhere correctly?
