On Cherry Hill glass that residency means visible spotting on dark glazing within a single dry-down cycle and accelerated lower-sash mineral residue over the working year.

What actually shows up on Cherry Hill glass

Oak and maple pollen
APR-MAY

Oaks, maples, and elms produce yellow-green pollen layers on horizontal glass and the upper third of vertical glass through the second half of April and the first half of May.

Pine Barrens resin and pollen
APR-JUN

The pitch pine and shortleaf pine forests of the Pine Barrens in south central New Jersey produce a resinous aerosol and a fine yellow pollen during spring. The resin requires a solvent pass on heavily affected exposures; the pollen clears with surfactant.
