Objects not listed might still catch fire if exposed to the finger. Each is entitled to a saving throw vs. normal fire. The effect doesn't last long enough to produce significant heat, though it will produce a flash of light that may help the character gain his or her bearings for a moment. There's no remaining afterglow after the cantrip ends.
The flame lasts only an instant, but it has the power to cause a single point of damage, provided the caster is immediately adjacent to the target (no roll is needed to hit).
