Many office chairs are made of mesh, a highly durable material that fits into nearly any modern office decor. As with the rest of the office, the chair requires cleaning on occasion to collect dust, food particles and other residue. You can clean the chair in just a few minutes by using simple ingredients that are probably in the home or office already. Cleaning the chair regularly will maintain the shine of the mesh.
