All of the glass needs a good clean (tar stains - you can see the difference in colour between the 120 and the Fern Bank panels, the former I just wiped with a wet wipe). My dear is if I'm too heavy handed it will all fall out. Some of the panels don't have security glass either so would like fall in with a less than beefy shove. Plus the wood work on the outside all needs a good going over.
