Quick answer: It can leave a sticky film over time, especially with heavy indoor use and little ventilation. It’s generally less visible than cigarette tar staining, but residue can build up on windows, mirrors, and screens.
Limiting residue
- Ventilate: open windows, run exhaust fans.
- Don’t exhale directly at walls or screens.
- Wipe glass and screens regularly.
Cleaning
Mild soap and warm water or a gentle all-purpose cleaner usually lifts the film; test paint first.
Renters
Check your lease — many prohibit smoking and vaping indoors.
