I assembled my latest project (a blanket chest) yesturday and I
contemplated prefinishing it before glue-up. This should make glue
clean up a lot easier. I can see two potential problems with this: 1)
finish will weaken any tenon shoulder glue adhesion (finish
surrounding a mortise). 2) the act of clamping can scratch the
preapplied finish. Take the poll.

I often sand and prestain certain parts before assembly, in particular
cabinet door panels. With wood movement and seasonal shrinkage door panels
can reveal unstained areas.

Ohmigod! I came back too soon. You guys are still using the 'S'
word!

Shameful. Just shameful. I bet I'll see the 'P' word soon, too.

Now that was a memory flogger. IIRC your favorite finish word was
"polyurinestain". ?

Erm, -not- "favorite finish", but favorite nick for that P stuff.
Ayup, you got it in one, jo4hn.
