Have you ever seen this? (smoker damage)
This apartment was occupied by smokers for 16 years. I I bought an apartment last year that had smokers for 30 years straight and it still didn't look this bad. Nasty!
This is my favorite. It looks like an actual confederate flag hanging on the wall but that's just the way the wall stained. It a very detailed pattern and even includes folds! My wife saw the picture and thought it was still hanging there.
What's your worst smoker unit? What are your tips for cleaning it?

That one of the flag is cool looking!
I've had a few in my day as well. I'll post a pic of one with 12' ceilings. They smoked in it a few years then power was cut off so....they
grilled in the living room!
To clean this one I used a garden sprayer with vinegar and water 50/50, a sponge mop and another guy with a towel. Mostly cleaned, then ran an ozone machine forever. Then primed and painted. 1250 sqft, 12 ft textured ceilings throughout.
I don't rent to smokers anymore, whether they say they only smoke outside or not! Bonus pic of the way another smoker left my apartment...
