Remove glue and prep veneer--whats the best way?

[fender3x]

Looking for tips on removing glue spots and finishing VERY thin veneer.

Be VERY careful?

yep, careful use of Goof Off . If you are doing a dark stain you can also disguise glue spots with careful colour matching with modelling paints and a tiny brush. I've used both Tru Oil and auto acrylic over the top of water based modelling paints

Thanks! I thought I'd seen a reference to goof off somewhere. I'll give that a shot. Also, be careful. Check!

Depending on the marks, and the surface, you might be able to scrape them off with a cabinet scraper or similar. I used the back of a lino knife on mine.
