Jay,

Do you recommend to wipe excessive glue off with a damp cloth immediately, or scrape it off, when dry ?

I remember a thread subject about that some time ago. But since i'm starting #2 next week, i would like to have a refresher. As i recall the cons against wiping wet glue off, were that it could create blotches.

On #1 i wiped all glue off, when wet, and did not have much blotching (can "blotches" really be bent that way :-). Would have thought that wet glue left on bare wood, could also create blotches ?
