Pencil line come through seam when hanging wallpaper

[Ackoman]

Hi

I'm hanging wallpaper and have run into an issue - I used a pencil to draw a plumb line on the wall, and when I laid a sheet of paper over the line and used the wallpaper brush to brush it down, a small amount of paste came up through the seam, carrying some pencil lead with it. Now instead of a nice more or less invisible seam, it sticks out like a sore thumb because it looks like someone has drawn a line on it.

Is there anyway I can get the pencil lead out of the paper? Or am I faced with removing those two bits and doing it again?

Thanks,

Ackoman

Have you tried dabbing it with a damp cloth?

the rubber on the end of the pencil just go gently
