Default draining fuel rails

Is there a standard procedure for replacing fuel rails without fuel going everywhere? I will be adding new rails shortly and really don't want fuel running everywhere. Is it even avoidable?

Default

there is a schrader valve on the front of the fuel rail...........
unscrew the plastic cap and hold a rag up to it and put a pocket knife or small screwdriver in there and let the rag soak up the gas ........ then throw it outside so you dont have to smell the fumes while your working on it
