Default Elmers Ultimate Glue or Gorilla Glue - TIA

I have been using Elmers Ultimate glue on a project and I have found it expands and
leaves nasty glue marks on the outside of the finish project that I have been sanding off.

In very tight corners it is most nearly impossible to sand, especially across the grain.

With the old Elmers wood glue or white glue. I used to wipe it down with water and that would
remove most, if not all of the glue so sanding would not be a problem and the wood would take
a nice stain.

Is there a way one can prevent or easily remove the extra residue of Ultimate glue or gorilla glue
before it dries so I don't have the problems of sanding in tight corners?

Does anyone have any special tricks up their proverbial sleeves?

Thanks,

Larry
