White Spirit will dissolve the wax and remove the polish. However if the carpet is stained then I guess its a big problem.qui tacet consentire -

I would do what Fraserca recommends first as you need to get rid of the wax. Dab it though, don't wipe it, as you'll just make the stain bigger. Once most or all of the wax is gone try a stain remover. I had a very small patch of shoe polish and removed it with IPA (Isopropylalchahol) which can be found at Maplins and the like, in aerosol form. I used a cotton bud and did a very small area at a time.
