Potential Fingerprint Problems?

#1

Post by CatD6R »

A machinist by trade, I constantly abuse my fingertips with cuts and burns. I was wondering if this would cause a set of prints to be kicked out for my CHL. Any suggestions or knowledge of the subject?
Thanks

When I first got my license I was told to hold off on prints till the blisters healed over on 2 of my fingers. And I have a friend that about three times a year his fingers peel and he had his kicked back the time he was printed when they were peeling. I would suggest to do what ya can for a week or do and get them in the best shape you can and then get printed.

I have also seen some prints that I thought were smeared and non-useable that went through with no problems. With DPS it seems ya never know.

This is just from my experience.

Thanks for the welcome. Someone on another forum told me to use a water based lotion for atleast a week prior to being printed, and I am keeping cuts covered while at work...hopefully i wont have any problems.
Thanks again!
