This filter is completely clean, appearing to be lightly used.
From the B+W Filter Handbook:
“With B+W polarizing filters, reflections on glass, lacquer, on nearly all plastic materials and other electrically non-conducting surfaces can be reduced or even eliminated. B+W Polarizing Filters provide you the contra over how much reflection you wish to remain because the light reflected a an angle of about 40º to 70º by these surfaces is strongly polarized. It’s transmission can be reduced, blocked or even enhanced (!) in relation to the remaining unpolarized light, depending on the rotation of the filter. Thus a clear view os made possible through plates of glass, of goldfish below the surface of the water, or of writing on pictures behind a glossy layer of lacquer.
Every object outdoors reflects light from the sky more or less diffusely and largely polarized, some objects, such as green plants and red roof tiles are covered by a bluish-gray veil that can make them appear pale and dirty. B+W Polarizing Filters can remove this polarized veil and thus increase the saturation of the true color. Because the blue light from the sky, especially at an angle approximately perpendicular to the sun is strongly polarized, a polarizing filter can be used to render the sky with a more saturated color, so they white clouds will stand out more dramatically. Using a polarizer for black-and-white film, reflections can be accentuated or reduced, and can have higher image contrast.”
