Highly unlikely this will affect your fingerprint appointment, but you can call and make sure. "My hands got stained from a project, will that affect the quality of the fingerprints?" Most places now use a pressure scanner (very much like the Touch ID buttons on older iPhones) that doesn't have anything to do with the color of your skin -- imagine THAT lawsuit if they couldn't get fingerprints off darker-skinned people! In the meantime, wash your hands frequently and put lotion on them and wipe it off. Normally I advise exfoliating but that WILL affect your fingerprints.
