I would use white spirit and steel wool.

Even so, it would be hard to guarantee the removal of all the wax. Why do you need to do this?

Commercial stripping in caustic soda would do it, but it would remove most of the timber's colour as well. I'f they've been stripped with caustic previously I wouldn't risk a second immersion.
