You know as well as I do what hell some of these machines lived in an how
robust they really are. A red erasor is not going to do anything negative
to a 'finger' on a board. I have my 130xe for 15 years and have used an
erasor at least 30 times on various boards. No impact other than to solve
spurious flaky problems. The reason why I like the red ones is for thier
mild abrasive quality. The softer ones don't take off the oxide.

I was told that red pencil erasers should never be used
as they sulfur
compounds, and to use instead a natural gum rubber or white plastic
eraser.
