Rubbing out (7)

Ross

I think it could be either:

erasure

erasing

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

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for erasing that I've seen before include "Removing" , "Getting rid of" , "obliterating memory" , "Rubbing out" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times and The Guardian.
