You don't.

Apart from a few rabbits are perfectly capable of keeping themselves clean.

Don't let him trail through too much wet dirt; and make sure his litter tray is cleaned out regularly & lined with something absorbent.

if you dampen them once a day the rabbit will clean them himself and eventually get into a habit of cleaning them
For my show rabbits they get 20% peroxide mix with a special groomers powder.

if their nail has soil or dirt, and they lick their nail, some bacteria can get into their mouth. So the other day, my bun Minnie came back inside, her nail is dirty, so I put a small bowl of water and dip her nail in the water and rub off the soil/dirt on the nail

I don't bother. They're bunnies. They keep themselves very clean anyway and they're supposed to run about in grass etc.
