So, it came to my attention via an industrious mime that turmeric powder, when splashed on a person turns them orange. It was further distressing when I found out there was no way to un-orange myself, to include acid, acetone, sponges, repainting myself then cleaning it, NOTHING worked and I was honestly astounded by how simple and frustrating it was of a prank.
My suggestion would be to have SOME way of reversing the effect of it considering how easy turmeric powder is to make it seems a bit powerful to be permanent. My suggestion on cleaning it off would probably include shoving the person into a washing machine and turning it on or something lie that.

This user has been stained with turmeric, it will not come off.
(Okay but seriously yes there should be a way to remove it, washing machine would be funny)

I like the idea of a washing machine being the only way to remove it; VERY entertaining.

As a throughout experienced Doctor, I see how the common mistake of trying to fix the issue, instead of ending their agony came to make.
Yes, man cloning is the ONLY way known to me, and only because someone begged me to solve this (they were shortly reyellowed after).

On the topic of this, I belive the washing machine, because of its under-utilization, should be able to remove the plating from a plated object (because plating is just the outer layer). on the top of my head this would include Material plating and deep fried foods (or tools).
This is probably a terrible idea though so

probably not.

I'd like to see your washing machine... mine doesn't handle tools very well
