Warning - disgusting story alert - but also a bit funny.
When I was a teenager I had a wart on one of my fingers. A friend gave me a bottle of Compound W, which contains salicylic acid. The bottle was one she'd used herself but not finished and it was several years old. The contents were extremely thick. (I bought another bottle a few years later for a different wart and it was really runny and totally useless.) The thick stuff would stay where it was put.
One weekend, soon after I started using the acid stuff, my father ordered me to wash the car. I used hot water and rubber gloves. When I was finished I yanked the rubber gloves off and it took me a few minutes to realise my wart had been removed with the gloves. The acid in the Compound W had stuck to the gloves. There was a small crater in the finger, and the wart never came back.And the removal process hadn't hurt at all.
