A hair dryer does work well. An iron works well too. Put down a few layers of paper towel then apply the hot iron. The melted wax will absorb into the paper towels. Also, I believe nail polish remover will dissolve wax.
Goof Off works even better than mineral spirits. I never tried turpentine, but that is pretty similar to goof off and probably works good too.
Ditto on Sheri's melt and wipe idea. I do that too. In fact I use a heat gun just cause it's hotter and faster, but I wouldn't do that on anything other than a ceramic tile floor.
