Just do a wipe down with mineral spirits and it will show dry spots
where ever you have any glue. I do this as a matter of course when
doing my final sanding on any fine piece.

I do this also after final sanding.. I just put some on a paper towel
and go.. It seems to clean the surface better than a tack cloth and
will highlight any missed small dents/scratches/imperfections in the
wood as well as glue stains..



Unlike "Nom" who puts brads in everything and always wipes down his
squeeze out, I always let the squeeze out dry for a half an hour and
scrape it off. The other trick is to just pay special attention when
gluing to not get it on your hands, keep a damp rag tp keep your hands
clean and minimize the glue spots.

Is it just with me or do you guys also 'find' glue on your projects
while applying the finish. Every single time. I end up having to
scrape areas and re-applying little areas. It doesn't effect the
finish quality because I usually 0000 steel wool everything and apply
several more coats, but man it's annoying. i know there is special UV
active glue that you can use, but I haven't bothered to try it.

Can't be just me.?.
