Strip: Epoxy on shear strip

Hello. I am finishing fiberglassing my first kayak. I didn't take any precautions to protect the shear strip joining surfaces from epoxy drips. These edges need to be clean an true in order to join the two halves. Any recommendations to deal with my shortsightedness on this topic?
You all have helped me tremendously in the past. Thanks.
