The error correction products

For many years I have been plagued by the tendency to make errors when writing with a pen. I have been interested in seeing the evolution of products geared towards helping people to deal with that problem. I can remember trying to use the old fashioned ink erasers that were little hard rubber wheels with little brushes on them. I never seemed to have good luck with them! They just seemed to smudge the ink around and tear holes in the paper!

Then along came the liquid “white out” products. They worked pretty well, but seemed to get clumpy quickly! And then you had to wait for it to dry before you could make the correction. I can remember blowing on the paper, and waving it around in the air trying to dry it so I could proceed with the work I needed to do.

Not too long ago, correction tape products appeared. I like them because they go on dry! But sometimes they don’t apply smoothly and leave big holes in the tape so you can see the error showing anyway. So you apply the tape again and again, and not too long before you have a big mess!

My personal favorite is erasable ink – you can write all you want with the pen, and if you make a mistake you simply erase it with the eraser on the end of the pen. It works great! It comes in several colors. The only thing about that is that you don’t want to write a check with it!
