   I advice you to remove all the dried glue before applying it again to make the work look clean. Glue solvent may help.

   try alcohol

   No, use it on the part!

   I have found that denatured alcohol will soften tightbond 3 in trying to correct a glueing process mistake: too much squeeze out.

   I removed the hard parts with a chisel - you may want to use a sander - and rubbed the alcohol on the glue and let it soak for a minute or two.

   The judicious use of a sharp chisel allowed me to pry up the thin coats.  Minor snading then got me down to bare wood. You might use a drill bit in your handheld.

   The alcohol should not interfere with your reglue as long as you let the tenons dry completely.

   If you have not sized the tenons, why not re-mortise to s slighly larger size?  Or you could do that, cut off the tenon and mortise it where it use to be, then use slip tenons.
