When I used paste wax on the RV12 it left white wax rings around all those protruding rivets. I'll admit that months later I still have some showing. Can someone recommend a different approach to waxing these "bumpy" planes.

I always carried toothpicks in my cleaning kit to clean up the rings.

Traditional approach is a small stiff-bristle paintbrush, cut down so the bristles are about 3/4" long.
