: I'm FINALLY getting around to laying my first strips on my Night
: Heron, and am somewhat concerned about glue bleed out, since I
: don't have the most steady hands in the world. I'm using cove

: or try to wipe it off. I'm inclined to leave it, and scrape it
: off later. I'm afraid if I try to wipe it off, I'll have
: problems when I start sanding. Any suggestions??

It depends somewhat on what glue you are using. If you are using titebond it is helpful to wipe off the excess with a damp cloth as it gets quite hard when cured and is difficult to scrape off the lumps. There will be some tight spots which are almost impossible to get to inside as you go along. There is not much you can do about those areas but scrape and sand afterward. Try not to be too heavy handed with the glue in these areas.

Foaming PU glues scrape off very easily and wiping with a damp cloth will just cause them to foam more, so scrape Poly Urethane glues afterwards.

I'm sure you will get more feedback on the subject.
