A lot of people put a screw into the back side of the nozzle to pull out the cured silicone.

Personally, I use a small oral syringe used to give kids medicine for application. I actually stick the syringe INTO the opening of the tube, draw in some silicone, then apply that to the groove. My mess and waste is minimized.
