Rub out (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

erase

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">rub out</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that rub out can be written as erase)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for erase that I've seen before include "Clear" , "score" , "Do away with" , "Obliterate" , "Remove, wipe out" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, The Irish Times, the Penny Press, The Guardian, the Sydney Morning Herald, the LA Times, The Times, The Mirror, the Universal, The Telegraph, The Sun, the USA Today, The Star Tribune and the Evening Standard.
