In Response To: Strip: Glue bleed out (Jack Hawkins)

: 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
: and bead strips. My question is, do I just leave the bleed out
: 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??

With Titebond 2 I wipe the squeeze out off with a damp rag, inside and outside as long as I have access. Anything left comes off easily with a scraper. Sanding is no problem and there are no after stains from the glue. Works for me :))
