Not sure what you mean. If it's thinned, it should simply run into the recesses and stay there until it dries. If you're getting pools of wash on flat surfaces, though, the easiest thing to do is use the corner of a sheet of tissue or a moistened paintbrush to just soak up the paint, and if need be paint it back into the recesses. Or just paint directly into the deeper areas in the first place, that ought to do it.

Just checking, you are leaving the models standing upright to dry, aren't you? If not, then the wash will go into all the wrong places.
