Cleaning your chair is important to maintain both its appearance and longevity. Here’s a general guide for cleaning and caring for your chair to keep it in top shape:
For Fabric & Mesh
Vacuum First: Use the upholstery attachment on your vacuum to remove dust, crumbs, and debris from the seat, backrest, and armrests.
Spot Clean: For stains, use a fabric-friendly upholstery cleaner or make a DIY cleaning solution (mix mild dish soap with warm water). Test in an inconspicuous area first.
- Apply the solution with a soft cloth or sponge.
- Gently blot, don’t scrub, to lift the stain without damaging the fabric.
Dry: Allow the chair to air dry. Avoid using a hairdryer or direct heat, as it can damage the fabric.
For Wheels
Clean the wheels: Use a damp cloth to wipe down the wheels and remove dirt and grime. For stubborn debris, you can use a toothpick or a small brush to remove buildup from around the wheels.
Lubricate: If the wheels are squeaky, add a little silicone-based lubricant to keep them moving smoothly.
Additional Tips
Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Never use strong solvents, bleach, or ammonia on any type of chair as they can damage the material.
Regular Maintenance: Wipe down your chair regularly to prevent dust and grime buildup.
Protect from Sunlight: Try not to leave your chair in direct sunlight for extended periods, as UV rays can cause fading.
