Excess Glue Removal -- What's your method?

[Left Coast Chris]

Good looking sponge Swamp...

This thread is very helpfull for those of us that have not done alot of finishing. 

Some other factors for the success of the sponge are likely to be the type of wood, type of glue, type of stain or finish, amount of water and what the woodworker feels is acceptable as far as perfection..........eh?

On my butternut projects last winter I damp sponged and sanded 2 or 3 times. I never seen any stains and I would think it is similar to walnut, except lighter in weight and color. You guys seen about every square inch in the pictures. I had clue squeeze on about every joint, but I sponged it up and it didn't dry into the grain. There are some woods like osage and mulberry maybe that the heart extractives might dissolve and  run into the sap making a stain I suppose. ;) It's one or the other or both that will dissolve in water and color the water. I forget some of this wood tech stuff.  :
