You can lightly scratch it up with coarse abrasive paper or lightly running a wire brush over it following the grain to go some way of disguising it, then polish it up lightly to blend it into the surroundings.

But you'll never truly hide a surface repair on a clarinet as the line of glue will always show to some degree. Some will take more looking than others to spot, but as long as they're not conspicuous under natural or average lighting conditions is best in my books.
