Cedar sap season: The neighbourhood's namesake cedar trees produce a sticky sap that's particularly difficult to remove from glass. Unlike maple or birch sap (which dissolves readily in warm water), cedar resin is oil-based and requires a solvent pre-treatment or specialized cleaning approach. If you see amber-coloured sticky spots on your windows near cedar trees, don't try to scrape them — scraping smears the resin and scratches glass. ClearCoat™ purified water combined with our pre-treatment dissolves cedar resin without scratching.
Markham Road homes: Properties along side streets within 200m of Markham Road face elevated commercial traffic dust — delivery trucks, TTC buses, and daily commuter traffic create a fine grey film. South-facing windows on streets perpendicular to Markham Road get the worst exposure. Spring cleaning in April is essential to remove winter's accumulated road film.
