Glue/Finishing
#4
Some glue impacted the degree of stain absorption. Sanding out is not an option.
Any tricks out there that could help?

Scrape or chisel out? Cover up with a glaze? Cover with tinted shellac?

Careful in-painting of color in the affected area after sealing things down with some blonde shellac.  Then seal down the in-painting.  Then move on with the rest of the finishing schedule.

Alternatively, seal everything down and then go with a darker color in a gel-stain formulation, leaving it to nearly dry on the affected area.  That makes it darker and may mask the boo-boo.  Seal again and continue with finishing schedule.
