Tombow 57316 MONO Zero Eraser Refills, Round 2.3mm, 2-Pack

I most often work in colored pencil and that means that I'm often sketching in pencil, refining the sketch and then erasing the sketch as I fill it in with color. Having a precision eraser makes all of the above easier. If I'm refining a line often I just want to shave a little bit off of one side, or I'm working near other lines I want to keep. When I'm cleaning up just before I apply color I'm often working near other color that will smudge or be partially erased, which definitely isn't what I want.I've seen reviews where the replacements are hard to put in, but I haven't had that issue. I've not had to replace the eraser yet, but I've pulled it out and put it back in a half a dozen times to check it. That addresses a second fear I had that it wouldn't last very long, but even with daily usage over 6 months I've not used half the eraser in the one it shipped with. I do also use the larger Tombow Mono erasers when I am clearing out large blocks, which is where I think you'd go through this type very quickly.This and other Mono erasers erase fully and quickly and don't damage paper. They do a good job with watercolor in removing graphite either before or after painting too. Even though I've not gone through my first eraser I've bought a couple refills because I know this is one I'm going to want to keep using.

Best, precise and clean

I like using these for small erasures, tight corners, etc. That said, I find it's more economical to purchase refills for my existing unit rather buying a whole new set up. It can be set up as a "subscribe & save" item if you use a lot of these refills. Tombow makes quality art supplies & these are no exception.

When you do a pencil drawing you should always start with the dark areas first (b6 pencil). Then use the mono zero eraser to erase the dark area highlighting hair, fur or anything that needs dimension. The ultra fine tip is great tool for this

The detail you can achieve is amazing

A good buy. Useful for anyone working with graphite leads who needs detailed, more precise erasing.

These are so necessary when you are working with minute details on delicate pictures. I love portrait drawings and can capture the exact features as long as I have these handy. No residue and they erase easily.

So far I haven’t experienced any problems with my paper being ripped by the eraser. If you have a lot to erase use a kneaded eraser to get the big stuff. This eraser is good for comic book artists who need to be perfect and architects. But architects use thinner paper so who knows if it will rip the paper. I just don’t have a problem with this eraser using copy paper or Bristol board.
