13 hrs confidence:
friction (marks) Explanation: I think it sounds more correct when we consider that it is the (absence of) marks which are being described. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 13 hrs (2011-05-12 12:32:15 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Maybe a better option: abrasion marks |
