Hello dears.
When one cuts the nails of Guinea Pigs but cuts too far then one will
generally apply Silver Nitrate to the bleeding area to stop the
bleeding (One can get it in tubes at various vets.)
Yesterday mother was doing this and got silver nitrate on to her hands
and part of her arm. She hasn't complained of any irritation or
anything like that, but now has rather unfortunate dark brown marks
over her fingers and part of her arm. When she got it on herself she
didn't think to wash it off straight away.
For those in the know, is this a burn or is it a stain? She's tried
getting it off with various soaps, washing up liqud and even Swarfeger
and it doesn't even fade so I'm assuming it's a burn. Would that be
correct?
Apart from removing the limbs, can you think of a way of making it
fade or will she just have to display it for the duration?

Don't be silly - she *always* sports pink marigolds for fisting.

Not really, but I'm not sure there is any clear definition of 'burn' in
this context. The stain is partially silver chloride formed as a result of
a reaction with the salt in the skin and responding to sunlight, but ISTR
there is also some binding with skin proteins.
There are probably some chemical approaches to removing the stains, but my
mum never bothers - she regularly gets the stuff on her hands as a
chiropodist. Takes a couple of weeks to fade away.

What he said - but you could try gently using one of those eraser sponges,
it does work. Acksherley, lemon juice might work as well.

Just out of curiosity and definately not "in the know" - but isn't silver
nitrate the light-senistive chemical-thingy used in (early) photography?
- Maybe she has just invented the "photo-tatoo"..?!?

Article in (danish) Wikipedia suggests, that the stains start out brown but
will turn darker (presumably when exposed to light?!) - and that there is
absolutely no way of removing them.
So "photo-tatoo" and "for the duration" it is then...

Celly thinners, or angle grinder. Or leave it, it's only a stain.

Do you actually think like this, or is it your online persona?

I'm not sure if salty water would be good in this situation.

If I knew that, I wouldn't have needed to ask the question. IIRC I've
met you once, reasonably briefly.

I really don't understand what you're asking. Do I actually "think
like this."
