Rubbed out (6)

I believe the answer is:

erased

'rubbed out' is the definition.
('erase' can be a synonym of 'rub out')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for erased that I've seen before include "destroyed the lot" , "'Wiped out, deleted (6)'" , "Rubbed out, expunged" , "Red sea (anag)" , "Rubbed out, deleted" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, The Irish Times, The Telegraph, The Guardian, the Penny Press, The Mirror and The Independent.
