Dear list,

Jim is absolutely correct about the fogging effect.  Crime labs take 
advantage of this aspect of CA and use it to "fume" evidence to try to 
discover latent fingerprints.  The CA will actually be atttracted to and 
bond with the residues left by the fingers, producing a nice, clear image 
when done.  If you have fingerprints on the inside of the window glazing, 
you will highlight it for eternity with CA fumes.
