They can. Distortion, however, will play a big factor in the quality of the latent prints developed.

For processing I would first fume it with super glue then apply black powder or dual contrast powder.

Hope this helps.

Can prints be lifted from the trigger of a gun and if so, what process is best to use? Powder or chemical development and then photography?
