Glue stains appeared on veneer after first coat of poly. Can I sand it down again to erase them? Or should I just give up on woodworking/ life altogether? (lemmy.ca)

Definitely do not give up! It won't always be like this. Woodworking (apparently) takes a long time to get great at. I wouldn't know since I still suck lol.

I would think you could fix the glue stain by sanding and refinishing (assuming the veneer is thick enough?), but I am a noob and I suck, as mentioned above...
