Now, if you had your glass cut to the perfect size, and you sanded out the radius COMPLETELY, you can just skip this step and go have a beer. For the rest of us, take any generic wood filler and get it into the spots where the glue didn't reach. Let dry, sand, and then my secret technique!
Minwax's products have screwed me over many a time before, but they also came out with a wood filler pen, which is essentially just coloured wax, but it works GREAT for this, especially when you're just experimenting and you don't give a damn what it looks like! If I'd tried harder, it might have looked better, it might not have, who knows.
