Step 1: Determine Your Chair’s Upholstery Type
The cleaning method depends on the upholstery type, so it’s critical not to damage your chair during cleaning. First, identify the upholstery material, which could be one of the following Boulies chair upholstery:
- Ultraflex PU leather
- Mesh
- Water repellent fabric
- Nappa leather
You can typically find this information in your order details or on our product pages.
Step 2: Vacuum or Dust the Chair Upholstery
With the upholstery type identified, begin by removing any excess dust or debris. For mesh or fabric chairs, vacuuming is essential to dislodge embedded dust. Use a regular vacuum attachment for mesh and a brush attachment for fabric, gently rubbing it over the surface. If your chair is covered in Ultraflex PU or Nappa leather, a thorough dusting with a thick microfiber cloth will suffice.
Regular vacuuming or dusting, ideally weekly, is recommended to maintain the upholstery’s condition.
P.S. Stains from drinks or food should be cleaned immediately.
Step 3: Clean the Chair Upholstery Using a Water or Solvent Solution
To tackle any marks from spills or stains, carefully apply a cleaning solution without damaging the chair. For leather upholstery, blot or gently wipe with a soft sponge. If cleaning mesh or fabric, dab the solution gently to avoid damage.
Step 4: Target Stubborn Stains
For persistent stains, a general cleaning might not suffice. If stains remain, consider spot cleaning with a few drops of rubbing alcohol applied to a cotton ball. Test this on a concealed part of the chair to ensure it won’t cause damage. If safe, use it to gently blot or rub away stains, taking extra care with mesh upholstery.
Step 5: Clean the Armrests and Base
With the upholstery clean, turn your attention to the chair’s armrests and base. Simply use a soft sponge or cloth with warm water mixed with mild detergent to clean these areas, drying them afterward with paper towels or a dry cloth.
Step 6: Tighten Loose Screws and Clean the Casters
Cleaning the caster wheels, often the most cumbersome task due to hair and debris entanglement, is next. Flip the chair over, vacuum the insides with a crevice tool, then wipe the exterior and crevices with a cloth, surface cleaner, and rubbing alcohol.
Finally, retighten any loosened screws and lubricate them with WD40 or another lubricant if necessary to address any squeaking.
Step 7: Relish Your Refreshed and Comfortable Boulies Chair
With your chair now pristine and rejuvenated, all that remains is to enjoy it.
Chair Maintenance Advice
To ensure your chair remains in top condition, here are some maintenance tips:
- Keep pets at bay to avoid scratches.
- position your chair away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and brittle upholstery.
- Use a towel or stay cool to avoid sweat stains.
- For real or faux leather chairs, apply a leather conditioner weekly to prevent cracking.
- Promptly clean any spills to reduce the risk of staining.
