I'd either remove it mechanically or try some strong solvents, keeping
them off the rubber trim, paint, etc. The FAQ says alcohol may work.
I'd also try white spirit and cellulose thinners.

Plastic ball type scourer first I'd say.

I don't know of any wax that is soluble in alcohol, and it would be
difficult to keep cellulose thinners off the seal, which it would
probably attack
