Welcome Ben-- Here are a couple of suggestions--
After I print a model, and before I start cutting, I spray the sheet with a coat of acrylic lacquer--I use Krylon, but there are others. This locks the printer ink in, and help to prevent unwanted dirt and stuff from sticking to the sheet. If excess glue squeezes out of your joint, wipe it off with your finger. When dry it will leave a visible shiny spot, but the next step will take care of that. When the model is finished give it a few more coats of clear spray. If I want a glossy finish I use the Krylon clear gloss. If I want a matte finish I use Testors Dull Coat from my hobby shop. Either one will cause the spots where the excess glue was wiped off to disappear. Looking forward to seeing pictures of your stuff!
