Hello all,

We are cleaning plaster casts for exhibition and have been doing so 
with white erasers.  A colleague has started using Design brand kneaded 
rubber erasers (distributed/manufactured by the Sanford Corporation.  
The label says that it "stretches, shapes for highlighting or erasing 
graphite, charcoal, pastels and crayon."

Is this suitable for the job at hand?  Should we stick with the white 
plastic erasers, switch to the Design erasers or use both?

Thanks so much,
Cheryl
