What do I do about excess glue oozing between vinyl tiles!

My husband laid down vinyl tiles over a linoleum floor in the kitchen and now glue oozes up between the cracks! How do I clean this up?

Wipe up excess flooring adhesive with wet paper towels before it dries. Label on adhesive can should provide info on recommended clean up.

Linoleum isn't the ideal base for installing glue down tiles, but since you have them, do as twelvepole says on the manufacturer's suggestions on clean up. Also, he probably used to thick a layer of glue, thus the squeeze out.
