Cleaning Mesh Office Chair Seat EASY! | How to Clean Computer Chair

- In this video, I show you the proper way how to clean mesh office chair seat without special tools or chemicals, and even restore it almost like new. Out of the many types of swivel chairs, I like the mesh type the best because it allows for better airflow, keeping your back and butt cooler compared to other ones made of leather or water-resistant material.

Yes, I also have a video on how I installed the multi-mode garden hose sprayer shown in the video above 👉 ruclips.net/video/8fzzxCoanZ0/видео.html
I don't have fancy cleaning tools, so this is perfect! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Bro! Your profile creeps me
I spilled oil on it
Ithought i had a hair on my screen 😂
bro i thought my screen got damageeeeeeed
Just a little reminder before you start washing the cushions and backrest. Always detach or unscrew everything from the base/mechanical parts to avoid corrosion or rust. Most chairs have 4 screws holding the cushion to the metal base, wouldn’t be that hard to unscrew some of them.
P.S: doing this can make the drying process easier since you can step on the cushion to push out all of the remaining water from the foam.
i was thinking the same thing, dumping water on your chair without doing and dissembling will definitely cause some serious issues
@@lndv what serious issues?
Is it okay to wash it like that ? Just asking bec the bottom of cushion of my chair is made of wood
@@gingerjacinto1428 i did wash mine couldn't careless anymore xD
@@gingerjacinto1428 sorry for the late reply. I've been doing this with many chairs for a lot of years. Haven't had any issues with the wood base. Along as you dry it up quickly ideally under the sun. You shouldn't have any problems
I love this guy he is clean person and knows how to clean new sub keep it up bro
Hey thanks Matthew for the kind words. I appreciate it!
straightforward and well-edited. great vid!
Glad you liked it!
Great and simple video. I found an amazing deal on an ergonomic office chair and wanted to deep clean it before using it.
we have the same color and brand of chair!!! i was planning to also clean my chair thank you!
Awesome! 😉👍
my chair is absolutely filthy, i haven't washed it for the 3 years i've had it and honestly i couldn't deal with it antmore. thanks!
I like the outtakes at the end
Hey thanks! Thought of including those bloopers to show that my videos are a product of many many takes 😂
Nice tutorial! Love your dog on the side btw😆
Easy install works great
Thanks for this my kapwa marikeño!(I guessed that because of the sidewalks HAHAHHA)
Hi! Thank you for such an in-depth tutorial, I managed to follow all your instructions on my mesh chair. However, there are still debris stuck in the mesh, how do I clean that out?
Try a vacuum cleaner when your chair is completely dry. This should do the trick.
Were you able to get the debris out?
a lot of office chairs have their cushions affixed to particle board or other compositions of wood (meaning not a solid piece of plywood).. i've seen a lot of the backrests that actually screw into that base piece, this cleaning method doesnt damage that?
going to try this tomorrow so thank you this helps a lot
Thank you so much! This vid is extremely helpful
Glad it was helpful!
Great, thorough, info. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for your tutorial.
Great video, thank you very much!
Glad it helped!
Hello ! Great video btw. I just finished doing everything in the video the only problem is it’s night time what would you recommend to dry the chair with ? Thank you !
Either use a blower, but no guarantees that it will smell that fresh. Or do it during the day next time 😉
Thank you! Excited to see if it works
Best of luck!
Did it work?
Very useful! Thanks :)
I found this video very helpful as I just bought my first office chair (which is coincidentally a mesh one!). However, the legs and stem(?) of the chair is metal, and I think it'd be unavoidable to get those wet. Would it rust? Or are there any other ways to deal with metal legs?
It will not rust for as long as you completely dry it as shown in the video. Also apply metal polish for good measure.
@@HanDIYman007 Salamat! Just washed my chair :) you've also earned a subscriber. Enjoyable content!
@@dominikeys3699 Glad to hear and thank you 👍😉
THANK YOU!!!!
Wow !! Thank you so much!!!
You're welcome!
Great video, really helpful.
Glad to hear it!
Helpful, thx man!
Glad it helped!
Nice one! Salamat po 😊
You're welcome!
Is there a need to sundry or just air-dry
Ayos nga ni bai!
K and other people are applying soap and letting it just dry but wouldn’t there be soap residue remaining? This is a better way.
Thank you so much!
Glad it helped!
Ayos boss galing. Keep it up.
Thank you!
I have the exact same chair and it already smells i need this, thanks
No problem 😊
Hey really liked the video. Just have a question, would doing the same for a non mesh chair harm the cushions? And do you oil the mechanical parts at the bottom of the chair again?
Hey thanks! If non-mesh but still made of porous fabric, then I think the same method will still work. However, if it is leather or synthetic leather, then the cleaning method will be different (search for other videos on how to clean leather). And no, I don't bother oiling the mechanical parts after cleaning -- I've been doing this for a long time and so far, no squeaking. I leave it up to you if you want to oil the mechanical parts though.
@@HanDIYman007 Alright, thanks for the detailed reply!
Thanks ....Excellent video
Glad you liked it
It's helpful but first how do I pick up a blue chair off the ground ?
How much time does it takes to dry completely
Had a feeling you were Filipino then I saw the Nvision monitor hahahaha. Nice bro
I am!
i also have the exact same!
Can I actually drench the chair in water? Wouldn't it affect the swivel mechanism?
This is the right way to clean tho
Excellent, thanks...
Glad you liked it!
Is there an alternative way to get soap out of the upholstery?
wooah this is the first time I watch this kind of unique cleaning of chair. keep safe.
I really enjoyed your video, I know you say to dry in the sun for 6 hours, but do you think it would damage my chair if I used a blow dryer?
Blow drying shouldnt damage the chair if done properly. My advice is dry under the sun if possible so bacteria is killed by UV rays 😉
Drying it under the sun is also faster and doesn't cost electricity.
Best video
verry interesting sir
Keep watching
I cannot find the same one you used to polish here in US, will wood polish work
Any plastic or vinyl cleaner will do. Yes, wood polish will also work. In the Philippines, Pledge is actually used primarily as a wood or furniture polish.
Is it ideal to wet the metal part at the bottom chair where you adjust the height? Cause there's this slimy thing that I think is lube to smoothen whenever you adjust the height.
Then reapply lube or grease after cleaning.
I'm guessing if the seat of the chair is the same type of mesh as the back, that would mean it's just fewer steps? But it would mean more water will flow down into the mechanism. Would doing a partial disassembly be helpful there, to remove the pneumatic mechanism, and clean the seat/back/arms and the base separately?
Also, any suggestions on removing long hair that gets tangled around the wheels, when the wheels have a housing around them? I found that extremely difficult, and am hesitant to use Powdered Brewery Wash to dissolve the hair, as I conjecture that it might damage the plastic of the wheels.
Good questions. If you are willing, able and have the time to disassemble everything before cleaning, sure go ahead. But from my experience, letting it dry under the sun after washing is good enough. Been doing this many times over the years and have not encountered rust (if that's what you're worried about). As for hair in the wheels, there's no easy way to remove those. What would make it a bit easier is to detach the wheels first so you can clean them under better lighting and on top of a table. Try using tweezers or chopsticks if the wheel and the cover have a narrow space.
Thank you.
You're welcome!
Nice! Very educational :) so how often should I deep clean my office chair?
Once you notice you're itching more frequently or the color of your chair is growing darker 😊
@@HanDIYman007 my chair is black so I'm gonna go by itching 😁😁😁
@@lemuelcruz247 😅😅😅
hello is it okay to leave a little bit of soap in the chair?
Very good.
Thank you! Cheers!
what if the entirety of the bottom part of the chair is made out of metal?
Found a gross ergo chair with birdpoop in my back and this helped!
Am glad this video was able to help you!
Can’t get yellow poo marks off my mesh chair
was able to pop out the mesh on the back of my chair. It started coming out itself and I realized it could all come out and be put back without too much trouble. If you have one of those fully mesh seats you might be lucky enough to be able to remove back and seat then throw it in the wash.
How to lubricate the chair like that to romove squeaky noise?
Do you have a suggestion what's the best glue to stick the side mesh of the back rest? Mine somehow not glued enough when I bought it, so now, it is sticking out.. :/
Try mighty bond so it remains clear when dry
Thank you, this video helped me clean mine also I upholster it :D
How about Haworth Look Chair?
My cat threw up on mine
Here too cause my cat shat on it
Doesn't the seat contain some wooden parts? Is it okay to pour that much water on it?
For anyone asking for how clean wheels, you can:
If possible take them out and use a candle for 2 seconds and it cleans it a little but make it better if you do it the right way. If you keep on heating it, that is bad. Use only 1 or 2 seconds heat.
After this put some oil like a few drops
I tried to knock from underneath the pad and it sounds like plyboard. If i wet the whole chair, it might deform.
Will this help remove chemical odour my new chair has? I recently bought this chair, its comfortable but it has a strong chemical odour
Yes, it should 👍
Would this work on a all fabric office chair?
fabric... most likely, leather... no
Am trying to clean mesh seat of husband's chair that has discolored and faded where he sits. It looks like a big stain and I'm sure nobody would want it. Any r easons why they fade in the butt part of the seat?
how moist or wet was the chair after it was 6 hrs in the sun? like i found a office chair that was whole day in the rain and it didnt have any problems so i took it home but its still "moist" after 1 day of it being inside. plus i pressed it many times with a towel to draw out the excess moisture out
and its still moist but when i sit in it it dosent leave moisture on my pants
If it was out in the rain then i highly suggest you give it a proper wash with detergent as shown in the vid. From my experience, it becomes completely dry after 6 hours under the sun. You may also use a hairdryer to expedite drying time.
@@HanDIYman007 thanks!
Hi! Thanks for sharing this detailed video! I tried this out but the wet smell isn't going away from the cushion. :( I've left it under the sun for almost 2 days already, any advice? Thanks!
Did you thoroughly squeeze the water out before letting it dry under the sun? Also, at night, bring it inside so the evening "dew" won't collect on the seat again. Only set it out when the sun is out. Don't leave it outside overnight.
And yes, you need to re-wash it.
@@HanDIYman007 I've done this and put it inside when the sun is no longer out. I'll try drying it out for one more day before rewashing then. Thanks for the quick advice! I'll update on the results. :)
@@heyxciii any updates? i am afraid my chair would also smell like this once i cleaned it this way. thanks!
No reply about the smell, May be it didn't turn up well... im impressed with the video but worried about this comment
what are some other ways to completely dry out the office chair? Sun is not an option as i live in an apartment.
Try a hair dryer/blow dryer. Or place it near your heater if you have one.
How often do you wash it? Every month?
About 3x a year
Wont the metal rust ?
Will this held with small food stains that are stuck in the mesh?
Yes, it should dissolve some if not all of those food stains/particles. Use a good detergent 😉
Hi! I tried doing this to my chair and I left it out in the sun but due to fear of rain, I had to take it indoors. Now the chair has an awful smell. How can I get rid of it? Help will be much appreciated! ✨
Great question! And the most practical solution is washing it all over again and letting it dry completely under the sun the 2nd time around (the same way that you would redo your laundry if it didn't dry out properly the first time).
@@HanDIYman007 Thank you so much! I'll try it again! 😄
@@nicholealigaen8293 how did it go?
هو الميه كان معاها ايه صابون ولا ايه
How many times should I need to clean my chair like that? Monthly?
Monthly us overkill. This is deep cleaning. Once a year or every couple of years. Your mileage may vary.
thanks for the tut my cat peed on my chair and the odor is a bit ergh so imma clean it thank you!
The back of my chair is mesh but the seat is fabric, is that okay to use your method ?
That's the same as the chair he used in the video.
Does this damage any parts? Rusting?
most metal parts are stainless, but I would recommend you oil it up with a plastic safe lubricants, Id also recommend not wetting the wheels as the bearings may rust happy cleaning
1:40 to jump into what actually matters.
Wouldn't this process destroy the wood in the chair?
yung upuan po ba ay mesh or foam? kung mesh po, pwede kaya ung approach sa foam based na upuan? TIA
Mesh fabric with foam inside. Kung pure foam sayo, pwede naman gumamit ng detergent pa rin pero just use your hands to rub off mga "libag".
@@HanDIYman007 salamat sa tip sir
Th dog at 02:25:
Uh-oh, am I next?
😅😂😂
Is this good for fabric chairs? This is the only video that has simple tools.
Watch the entire process and decide for yourself 😉
Won't it have mildew after I wash it?
Please watch video again.
HanDIYman 007 ok bro.
but wont it rust?
Is it okay to not squeeze out the detergent and let it dry inside the cushion?
Do you let detergent dry on your fresh laundry? 😉
@@HanDIYman007 my laundry doesn't have cushion inside
How do I get crumbs that are stuck out ?
Have you tried a vacuum cleaner?
@@HanDIYman007 yes it didn’t work
Ok lng b zonrox boss gamiton png linis?
Sure pero dilute mo muna sa tubig ng tama kasi bleach ang zonrox.
@@HanDIYman007 damihan kopoba tubig or kunti lng?
@@LawAbidingSociopath69 follow mo instructions sa label for your purpose.
3:41 I will always pray at the right angle !!!!
not sure why you need to "pray" at the right angle?!!!! But I think I got what you mean. The reason why I recommend "spraying" at a downward angle is that you don't get stuff behind and around the chair wet :)
Hindi po ba kakalawangin yung metal parts ng chair?
Hindi naman, for as long as you follow the steps in the video, lalo na sa last part.
lol i spilt a pot noodle on my chair so i have to do this
😂
Hahaha after I work out or play sports I always sit on my chair so the smell of sweat afterwards was horrendous
Hindi ba umasim ung amoy ng sa inyo? 😁 Anong solution?
Plz tell someone told me that not to wash a computer chair with water the iron of chair will catch rust
No rust on mine. Whoever told you that doesn't know what he's doing.
Skip to 2:20 if you want to see actual cleaning
Hehe I'm not even working I'm just a gamer with an office chair
Yep then this solution applies to you too :)
Dry under the sun for 6hrs is the hard part, I live in an apartment with a few windows that sometimes have sun and that is often not enough
Have you considered using a hair blower/dryer?
@@HanDIYman007 yup tried it but takes forever, I find putting a towel and sitting on it kind of helps dry it out faster at the start but even after that an hour on the dryer and it barely made a difference
My seats not even drying I've kept it out for data
