Are you glassed yet? If you are, yes they bacome less noticable because you get used to them and accept it. If you're still bare wood - sand more or scrape them first then sand more.

In hindsight, I always wet down the boat for a peak at what's there before glasing. That will always show any glue that's left. Contact the person who's plans they are and tell them to put that in their manual - it's important.
