To enable scrubbing on a model, simply use the scrub method:

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  scrub :name
end

user = User.new(:name => " Steve Richert ")
user.name # => "Steve Richert"
noname = User.new(:name => " ")
noname.name # => nil

See the scrub class method documentation for more details.
