AL-KAFI #325 : KESAN LIQUID/CAT PADA KULIT KETIKA BERWUDHUK
Is ablution valid if there are traces of paint or correction fluid (liquid paper) on the skin of the parts washed in wudhu?
Short answer
Ablution is not valid if paint or liquid is present on the washed body parts and it is of a kind that prevents water from reaching the skin.

Summary
Ablution is not valid if paint or liquid is present on the washed body parts and it is of a kind that prevents water from reaching the skin. The substance must first be removed, and then the person performs ablution again. This ruling applies where the substance was already on the skin at the time of performing ablution.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Jika sememangnya ketika berwudhuk sudah terdapat liquid/cat di mana sifatnya boleh menghalang air daripada sampai ke kulit, maka tidak sah wudhuk, dan perlu dihilangkan dahulu kemudian berwuduk.
