I find some of the best use for polarizing filter for seeing though windows or removing glare from surface water.....
You can get dramatically blue skies during the golden hours, too.

Yo always get blue skies in Photoshop!

I followed the method you have posted and it did not work out for me and I am a user of canon error b200 and I purchased it 2 months ago.

Shouldn't they be obvious as in a ND filter? Should I ask for a "stronger" polarizing filter?

I look through the lens and turn it how much I am affecting the "blueness of those patches". I thought you were supposed to be able to see those changes as you rotate the lens...but I have not found much success noting those changes using the LD display or through the lens

Remember that when you're looking through the lens, the lens is at full aperture, which is not necessarily the aperture at which the image will be captured. You might get more accurate results by using the preview button.
