I am not sure if IPA/H2O mix is safe to use on rubber. If so, I would imagine that would work (50/50 mix).

the IPA/H20 mix should work just fine, if you're too worried about the rubber you can follow up with a little tire shine on the rubber..

IPA/DI water would remove it, just remember it removes wax so if it gets on a panel it will remove anything you have on there. WD40 is also another option.
I ussually use a Q tip and spray either one of those things directly on the Q tip so that it dosent get anywhere on surounding panels. You can also put your finger in a towel and spray your finger.

i use rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball
Nobody can see the sunroof rubber unless they're 8 foot tall or on stilts, so I don't bother with getting the wax off the rubber :s
I just make sure the wax won't harm the rubber =)
Or don't get any on it to begin with.
Except when the roof is open... then they can see it a bit i guess.

You may need a toothbrush to clean it out since I'm asuming it's porous.
