Faber-Castell Dust-Free Art Eraser, Small, White

Faber-Castell Dust-Free Art Eraser, Small, White — for graphite.

A dust-free eraser is a vinyl eraser formulated so its crumbs cling together instead of scattering across the drawing.

It erases harder and cleaner than a kneadable one, which is what you want for graphite on smooth paper, technical drawing and anything that has to come back to true white. The trade-off is abrasion: on soft or textured paper, work lightly.

• Crumbs hold together instead of scattering
• Erases graphite back to clean white paper
• Best on smooth papers; work lightly on textured stock
