well, what I usually do is spray the polish onto the cloth, and then wipe... but now that it's too late for that. I'd say take a cloth and get it slightly wet with plain water, and try wiping it off with that. the water won't hurt the guitar unless it's you poured like a bucket on it. the finish on the guitar is probably oil based, so the water should roll off like on a ducks feathers (or a pair of dickies pants :D) so just wipe it with that, then wipe it off with a dry cloth, see what happens.
