I’ve read that aircraft mechanics were sad when smoking stopped because the nicotine smears on the aircraft were such a good visual clue of where air was leaking and it made theirs jobs a lot easier.
I’m renovating a house that was last inhabited by smokers. My first attempt at painting inside led to the just-applied paint flowing down from the tops of the walls overnight.

holy shit that’s disgusting. saying that as a former smoker
But is it as disgusting as rapid depressurization?
False binary, though? It’s not have smoking or have rapid depressurization…
Clearly you’ve never tried to quit smoking before…
Are…you making a joke or serious? I genuinely can’t tell…
Yea it was a semi serious joke. Cause smoking is hard to shake. And also wanted to be snarky. I wasn’t trying to be a dick.
Never quit playing, though
Nah can’t be caught being too serious
More disgusting less distressing

I’ve helped renovate several smoker houses. Use Killz paint or a similar product, it works. Wear a mask, the fumes from that shit will fuck you up.
Before I repainted the “flowing” areas I wiped them down with mineral spirits and that seemed to do the trick.
Is that why Boeing’s quality went downhill?
