eBay: plastic razor blades. They are dirt cheap for a huge pack of 'em.

I'll do this first as I have this on hand, and then move on to the other suggestions if I'm still having tight spots I can't reach.

Thanks everyone!

I just used Meguiars body solvent and then scrubbed with a toothbrush. I wiped it up with a terry cloth towel and the results were spectacular!

Simple green is very effective at breaking it up.

I found some plastic razor blades from various suppliers on Amazon.

I use wooden shish kabob sticks that you buy at the grocery store. Much stronger than tooth picks, easy to control and you can sharpen/shape the end to suit your needs.

Use a soft bristle tooth brush. That will fix any build up. Make sure to use a spray wax and then use the tooth brush for built up wax. The spray wax will help lubricate the brush.
