Does water destroy fingerprints?

Thus, latent finger or palm prints deposited only in eccrine gland secretions are usually destroyed (dissolved) when the surface bearing such impressions is submersed in water. In some circumstances, fingerprints deposited in water soluble contaminants and allowed to dry before submersion may survive.
