Thank you for your video! I just put the chalk finish wax on my desk and I do not like the color stain coming through. So I will take it off with the mineral spirits. I am grateful to learn how to take it off.
We always use clear wax 1st before the dark wax. If you decide you don't like the dark wax you simply use nore clear wax like an eraser. That might be a bit safer than toxic harsh chemicals without extremely important items like gloves, a mask and proper eye protection! You can blow up your house doing this inside without ventilation and definitely your lungs.
I have a piece that I painted and then run-on decals and then applied Behr decorative wax and part of it has started to peel. If I use mineral spirits will it take off just the wax or is it going to remove my expensive decals too?
Mineral spirits will definitely remove your expensive decals. I hope you didn't make that mistake. If you used clear wax prior to the dark wax you can easily remove it using some clear wax on a soft cloth and using it like an eraser.

Get in there closer Bob! Can't see a thing!
I would suggest to use gloves and a mask if doing indoors. I can’t believe she not wearing gloves. Crazy
