FAQs
Does it leave eraser crumbs?
Very few. Unlike conventional erasers, kneadable erasers lift material into the eraser itself rather than producing lots of debris.
Why does it come in different colours?
The colours are purely cosmetic. The formulation and performance are the same.
How long does it last?
With regular kneading and proper storage, a kneadable eraser can last for years of sketching and drawing. We have tested many brands and like the quality of this brand.
