"A little bit about erasers. For most of your pencil work, you can probably use a hard eraser but if you have some softer graphite then the best eraser to get and I love these is a needed rubber eraser. These are great for really cleaning up larger amounts of pencil and the softer pencil any graphite without rubbing it in and making it messier. The way to clean these is you want to take it out of the package and really sort of get it soft and your hands well heated up and kneaded. After you have used it when you have the graphite on the rubber, what you do is you just sort of fold it over and you start kneading it again and it will clean itself. So it's a great eraser to have and I highly recommend it."
