Yellow walls, furniture?

[DRR91075]

Hello!

I just got my shipment, Friday. I have to say... OUTSTANDING! You guys were right on target.

Can anyone tell me if vaping will yellow the walls and furniture like smoking does. It doesn't seem like it would, but I don't know if it's niccotine that does it or the other chemicals in the smoke.

Much thanks in advance!

I am no scientist here, but I would have to say no. You are exhaling what effectively amounts to water vapor. Even if it did not disperse as quickly as it does, I can't see that happening. Again, I am no scientist, but I am pretty sure it is the tar in cigarettes that is the culprit.

I have been vaping in my house for over 9 months now and there is absolutely no trace of any residue on anything....no more brown muck!!

Thanks, guys! That's what I was thinking. I just needed some confirmation.

After I started vaping and got my sense of smell back I washed everything in the house. Steam cleaned wall and floors, extracted the furniture, then painted about a week later (that was about 3 weeks ago). Everything still smells good. To early to tell on long term residue, but I think it should stay pretty good. When you blow cigarette smoke through a cloth that's what you getting on your walls and furniture. Blowing vapor through a cloth leaves no brown stain.

I wonded same thing and tryed exhaling through kitchen paper. After doing so many time, it was still as white as it first was. so I guess it doesn't

Nope. After the first 6 months of vaping, we washed all the nasty tar off of our walls, replaced lamp shades and air filters, cleaned our windows and TVs, monitors, etc. We could not believe how nasty it was. OMG - Now 1.5 years later, it is just routine wipe downs. No more dust sticking like glue to everything, no more slow yellowing of everything. Don't have to change the air filter every month, etc.

Vaping is truly a life and lifestyle changer!!

Take care!

No, it's the tar in smoking that yellows and reeks up everything. Check out this excellent thread, look at the second pic down.

Nope, sure won't. We are in the process of cleaning up everything here. Doing the carpet today. Got my sister-in-law to come over yesterday and do all the heavy stuff since we can't do it (disabled from an accident). It's amazing how much tar will stain everything. I'm so glad my son and I have quit smoking and the hubby is on his way to quitting.

Hi I agree I think it is the tar that makes walls etc yellow, You know kind of like that thing people do with a analog and blows the smoke into a hanky and it is dark brown, Just my 2 cents worth,
