Ive ordered a piece of 4mm "acid etched" glass from here: (bottom right)

Its finely etched or sandblasted on one side.

Do you think the etching/sand blasting has removed the tin layer?

You can test and find out, but my guess is they etch the air side. I know that a cream etch gets all fouled up on the tin side.
