How to remove frosted glass to be clear glass?
I have a table with a frosted glass that came like that when I bought it. Is there an easy way to remove the frosting with products from the local hardware store. Most of the Google searches are about removing frosted vinyl or removing self applied frosting but none about factory applied frosting.

Usually the frosting process of glass is a sanding/buffing method. Not sure it would be very easily removable..

Honestly I've never heard of it and don't think it's possible once the glass has been frosted.

Probably would be easier for you to go to a glass store and get a sheet cut to that size? Just take the frosted one in for measurements.

I thought about replacing the glass but the glass have metal attached to it so it can be screwed to the table. It looks similar to this but the whole glass is frosted.

you can try getting a glass polishing kit that is used for scratches and such, but you really are better off paying a glass company to cut a fresh piece of glass
