I believe the answer is:

erase

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">rub out</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that rub out can be written as erase)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for erase that I've seen before include "Clear" , "score" , "Do away with" , "Obliterate" , "Remove, wipe out" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald, The Times, the Evening Standard, The Guardian, the LA Times, The Mirror, the Penny Press, The Irish Times, The Independent, The Sun, the Universal, The Star Tribune, the USA Today and The Telegraph.
