I've managed to remove glue in the past through very light wire brushing.

For Wudtone, the wood will have some bearing on the final outcome of the color. I've used azure sky blue over basswood and it turned out more surf green due to the underlying green tint in the wood.
Thanks. As for the color, the blue I'd hoped for does look rather green. What do you think my options are? I've got three coats on so far. Someone, Swanny maybe, mentioned using blue stamp pad ink...I wonder if that's an option, to mix it with the stain to make it a deeper blue?
