You should see what it does to the inside of a computer.

I remember in my last job I went to this guy's house to install an internet connection, and he had a standard beige computer case, except it wasn't beige anymore. More like a yellow. Soot was all inside the computer too. Fucking grosssssss. I think the worst is parents who smoke around their children (i.e. younger than 18 yrs of age) in the house.
fuck, that sucks. it's cool though, paint the walls and doors like you are doing, steam clean the carpet, and then buy that pet powder shit, put it all over your carpet and vacuum that bitch up - and if you're real paranoid rip open all the windows and purchase an air purifier. boom, it'll be like new
It's funny when smokers move their furnitue and see the difference in the paint behind things. It makes me laugh at them.
The stains will ultimately work their way through paint, fyi. You may ultimately have to undergo some sort of godawful paint stripping ritual in order to cure the problem.
My mother-in-law, who smokes like a goddamned steamboat, had to run an ozone generator in her house for a couple of weeks prior to selling it. Apparently ozone, which is more or less what most folks call smog, is able to cancel out the smell or cigarette smoke. Who knew.
