Tobacco stains on fingers?

sandmanporto

Hey all. I've developed really bad tobacco stains on my middle finger (right hand ) and my index nail beside it. I smoke but they are disgusting and I wanted to know how can you remove the stain from flesh? I've tried bleach but it didn't work. It makes me wanna throw up every time I see them. I have fair skin and it shows up even worse. I apologize if this is the wrong forum to post this in but I would love to know how to rid them.
Quitting smoking is out of the question at the minute due to circumstances in my life.

Smokers toothpaste.

Bleach? Did you not just use soap first?

shopaholic01

When you're holding a cigarette make sure the palm of your hand faces the floor with the tip of the cigarette facing the ceiling. This stops the smoke staining your hands.

+1 on smoker's toothpaste. Also try cif cream or lemon juice.

Loopy

Baking Soda & hand lotion mixed together should remove the stains.

Anfield Road

nailpolish remover or lemon juice. Try both they do work and use cotton wool. Good advice on last post!. Good luck

dyer

soak in lemon juice for a few mins then scrub with a potato.. should do the trick!

Cut your fingers off. Then you won't be able to smoke either so you won't get cancer. Its a win win situation.

Don't smoke

Actually that makes sense I tend to hold the cig upright but my palm faces up.. Yes. The stains are really bad I am embarrassed to expose my hands in public.
Thanks for the advice

The last thing I need is your negative attitude! I know some people are offended by smokers at present and it's not like I am not aware of the health consequences.
If you have no positive input don't comment and go about your business GOT IT?

Hydroflouric acid my friend. Make sure you put it in a polyethylene container though and not in a cast iron bath tub because that can get very messy.

Seriously, start vaping.
Most of the benefits, none of the death (that we know of, but it's definitely far better than smoking).

As for your current problem, if you still want to smoke, hold it differently.
I smoked for a decade (rollies, and without filters for eight years of that decade) and never had a stain formation.
Am confused by the amount of people I know with the stains.

I stopped smoking my rollies down as much and that helped, always use a filter can't understand fellas with their little bits of cardboard.

Bleach does work. dab a bit on a cloth neat and rub hard on the stain. Immediately wash afterwards with very hot water and regular soap. Toilet duck or parazone will do the job.

Throat hit.

Milk & Honey

Use a brillo pad. Just soak it in water and rub. Nicotine stain gone in seconds. That is what I used to do when I was a smoker, back in the last century.

Temptamperu

washing hands regular like stops that.

Stained Class

I remember when people used to use the 'Friendly' matchboxes to rub off the stains.

Mind you, they had real sandpaper on the sides.:cool:

Stained fingers that you can physically see, every day.

What stains will have accumulated on your lungs by now, that obviously you can't see?

Everyone does you damage!

Woah. What?

prinz

Invest in a cigarette holder. Combine with top hat and monocle for maximum effect.

Burning slaves is wrong admiral, no matter how crap they are.

Also use alternate hands when smoking-it helps!!!!

Hey, it was only a joke. There really is no need for the aggressive tone.

You should also remember that this is a public forum, that you chose to ask this question in. You're not necessarily going to only get answers you like.

Satts

How about giving the phucking things up. Smokers are losers.

ft9

Get a tattoo to cover the stains

The Snipe

What I generally do is smoke using my other hand and wash my hands a hit more.

If you've a small cock try having a **** repeatedly. Sperm is very acidic, everytime pornstars get it the eye they wince. Can't hurt.

Huggies baby wipes work a treat. I used to swear by them back in the days when I smoked.. God I miss the fags, I'd kill for a smoke right now...

Try a pumice stone, you can pick them up cheap anywhere. Do the job just dandy. Quick scrub of your fingers while in the shower and you are sorted!

What kind of circumstances physically forbid you from giving up? You simply don't want to, which is fair enough, but circumstances are unlikely the reason you don't wanna give up.

Uriel.

Straight razor and gently run it across the stain for 30second in the morning and same at night. Switch holding your cigarette to the other hand in the meantime until stain is gone. May take a few weeks though

gigawatt

just use a nail file to gently sand the stain off. simples!

holystungun9

Chessegrater, then add salt.

Chuck Stone

Simply stain the rest of your body a yellowy colour and tell everyone you have jaundice.

Yup, its HydroCHLORIC acid that you need. Just make sure to give it a sniff before you use it to make sure its fresh

LH Pathe

This only happens to folk who allow concentrated smoke to pour onto their fingers from close proximity with the tip. Often drunks who can't feel it burning.. Smoke pours upward of course. Most people have a tendency to hold their cigarette tip away from the fingers, usually for such reason how irresponsible do you think we are... I smoke for health reasons. It's good for me. I am a health freak

mikom

Get a roach clip.
