    [1] Water will only make it worse. It will keep the wax from drying and allow it to sink deeper into the carpet fibers.

    You will use these to cool the wax but you want to make sure you don’t get the wax wet. Using a plastic bag will keep moisture from leaking into the wax which can prevent it from drying. [2]

    [3] Do this until the wax is cooled completely and no longer soft. [4]
    • If you need a little extra strength you can use wart freezing spray. This can be found at most local drug stores. Simply spray it over the wax and let it harden.

    [5] Place the side of the blade towards the carpet and gently pull towards you and up. Be careful not to saw at the carpet fibers as they may fray. Do this a few times to ensure you've gotten rid of as much wax as possible with the knife.
    • Using a dull blade lessens the chance of permanent damage (such as fraying) to your carpet

    The low setting will lessen the chance of scorching the carpet and it's important that there's no steam. This way the moisture won't melt the wax back into the carpet. [6]
    • Practice ironing on an old shirt if you've never used one before. This will ensure you do not scorch your carpet.
    • If you don’t have an iron, you can use a hair dryer.

    Barriers should be white cloths, white paper towels, cardboard, or paper bags.
    • Don't use paper bags or cardboard with print on them. The ink may transfer and stain the carpet.

    [8] Gently press the preheated iron over your barrier of choice and begin moving the iron in a circular motion. The wax underneath the barrier will begin to melt and transfer itself to the barrier.
    • Never let the iron sit still for long while face down as it may burn the carpet.

    This may need to be done several times depending on how much wax has been spilt.
    • Have extra cloths, towels, cardboard, or paper bags on hand.
    • Use a clean barrier each time until all the wax has been completely transferred and none remains on the carpet.

    To begin drying you should cover the freshly wax-free area with a clean towel. Then place a weight over the towel. Let these sit overnight. The towel will absorb any remaining liquid so it doesn't settle into your carpet. [11]

    Once the weight and towel have sat overnight, remove them and allow the area to air out. [12]
    • Vacuum. Once the area is aired and dried you can use a vacuum to straighten any fibers flattened by the weight to return them to normal.

    Expert Answer
    I would not recommend using water since water can actually make the situation worse. Instead, use a bag or towel of ice cubes to harden the wax and make it easier to chip away.
