I've done some cladding work in the house and I now want to varnish

There are some pencil lines where I've drawn lines to cut to. How
can I remove them prior to varnishing? I tried a pencil eraser but
it's not effective. I could sand it off I suppose but if there's a
less aggressive solution...
Try rubbing it with a spot of lighter fluid. Use a clean rag, or
you'll deposit whatever's on the rag onto the wood.
Test a small area first, see how you get on.
White spirit apparently works as well - never tried it myself. I usually
sand them off.
