The way I do it is to smear a thin layer onto the taper of the bolt head, just enough to 'tint' it, then wipe the residue straight down the bolt. The bolt will be nearly dry, and will (hopefully) smear just enough on the threads to stop them seizing. Between the hub and wheel too, a light smear, too much and it will get flung around the wheel and possibly the disc too.

Never had a wheel stick since doing this.
