How do you deal with glue squeeze out. If i wipe with a damp sponge I find
that area does not take stain as dark as the rest of the wood. I am making
raised panel doors and if I let the glue dry around the cope joints it is
impossible to remove. Should I stain before glue up?

I have made many doors /panels and just clean up with a damp rag and make
sure all xcess glue is removed .After it is perfectly dry I final sand and
stain the doors .Never had a problem with this procedure .Glue , I use
tightbond
