Default Making a neat job with foaming polyurethane adhesive

Hi,

I just tried out foaming polyurethane adhesive for the first time and
wondered whether there are any tricks for making a neat job? It's the
sort that goes on as a brown treacle-like goo and foams up after a few
minutes.

I applied liberally and then spent the next 20 minutes wiping it off and
still had a lot to trim away the next day. (note to self: I still owe my
wife a new bottle of nail varnish remover).

It didn't seem to be very sandable, or was I just not enthusiastic enough?

Perhaps my problem is that I want it to fill the gaps in the joint but
leave a clean edge on the exposed outside.

thanks

dan
