dried titebond squeeze out - removal help

Post by awguitar »

Hey folks - I thought I would start to post here instead of bugging John Hall directly (give him a break)!!

I glued on the fretboard yesterday with titebond. ebony board on mahogany neck. I had more squeeze out than I could control or clean up prior to drying (prob a rookie mistake). Any best practices on removing the dried squeeze out titebond? Is my only option scraping and sandpaper? thanks All!

if it is raw wood scrape and sand
Next time wait about 10 min and the glue will come off like a good booger
