Reply:Good luck with that one try calling a carpet cleaning company
Reply:Get the most you can up with the vacuum then hit the stain with an absorbent cloth and a little lighter fluid (naphtha, white spirit) and blot with dry paper towels that will get the wax up then the remaining should wash out with a carpet shampoo, have fun and polish your shoes in the kitchen!
Reply:We had a similar problem recently and used 'Stikatak Carpet Stain Remover'. One thing I would say is to use white spirit very sparingly as I was once told by a specialist that more carpets are ruined by white spirit than paint spills, as it attacks the backing of many modern carpets.
Reply:Any insecticide; as it's an organic dissolvent. leave it on the spot for 10 minutes and then clean it with water and some soap. and you're done.
Reply:try with white spirit , on cotton wool ,gently dab the spot where the polish is , then rinse with clear water,then with your own shampoo give a wash , remember when removing the stain work inwards so the stain won´t spread. once the stain has been removed .lay a towel with a heavy object on top of the wet patch this will help lift out any water from the underside of the carpet . you most likely have to sponge the carpet again as sooner or later the water stain will come to the surface
