Maguires nxt wax, is a spray all over wax and does not seem to leave a white residue. However if you really wanted to get in the small crevices you could try a cocktail stick wrapped in some cottonwool or a cotton bud.

I use a Meguiars detailing brush, nice long bristles to get any splatter out of hard to reach places.

Keith - how do we do this:

V6 Owners, do you want some extra power that your insurance company can not charge you for? then here is my number one suggestion, get your Vis motors checked!
