The paper wiper (Estompe) from Faber-Castell is a tool for smudging dry drawing media on paper. It is made of firmly rolled paper with a tapered shape on both sides, which allows you to create fine transitions and soft shading with precision. In contrast to smudging with a finger or cloth, it is easier to maintain control as the paper wiper can be used with pinpoint accuracy.
You can use the paper wiper for pencil, graphite, charcoal or pastel chalk. Rubbing lightly over material that has already been applied breaks up hard lines and distributes tonal values evenly. This is helpful if you want to work out volume, light gradients or spatial depth. At the same time, contrasts can be reduced without having to add new material.
The firm paper structure ensures that the wiper retains its shape even after repeated use. You can use the tip to work on small areas, such as details, edges or transitions in illustrations and studies. The side surface can be used to work on larger areas evenly. Depending on the pressure and direction of movement, you determine the intensity of the smudging.
Another functional aspect is the absorption of pigments: The paper wiper absorbs excess material and can release it again as required. This makes it suitable not only for blurring, but also for selectively shifting tonal values within a drawing. For clean results, the tip can be sharpened or reshaped if necessary.
