Hi there, I am able to get put a lot of the hair but there is still enough buried on the axles to inhibit the wheels' turning. I have tried vinegar and baking soda to dissolve the hair, and oxy-bleach, neither of which have worked to loosen the hair caught right in the middle of the spindle. Some have suggested that I try Drano to break down the hair, which I haven't done, as I am afraid it will compromise the plastic of the wheels. Don't see the point of putting in Vaseline or WD-40 if the hair isn't already out. Any suggestions?

Do you all have a video on how to clean your office chairs? I've got the steel case leap V2 with the very porous mesh back and the tighter weave on the seat cushion, just curious how to clean it well.

We don't yet but what Steelcase says to use is a clear dish soap with a soft bristle brush and a 12/1 water mixture with the soap and water in a spray bottle.

@@CrandallOfficeFurniture Thank you! I've got all sorts of car detailing chemicals from my hobby but don't want to use anything that will discolor the fabric.

I liked this video but my issue isn't the clogged caster axles. My resistance is related to the stem rubbing into the arms. Each wheel does it and it appears to be pressure activated. Any suggestions for that?

@raymaas8330 Күн бұрын

Yes, those stems can get really gunked up. Drill a small hole through the plastic in the bottom of the wheel. Try to get it directly under the center of the stem, though if it's a little off center it's ok. Make the hole big enough to get a pin punch through. Then put the wheel on top of a vise (or a couple blocks of wood) and knock the stem out with the punch. After you clean the stem up and lube it, tap it back in with a hammer.

Hello. What are the solutions for the black dots caused by chair wheels?

@CrandallOfficeFurniture 7 ай бұрын

Could you send us a video via email to Contact@crandalloffice.com of what is going on that would give us the ability to diagnose it better.

I used paint tape in the wheels and it's been good so far. it's black residue on the floor caused by worn-out chair wheels. @@CrandallOfficeFurniture

Do you have roller blade casters?

Forget these, get roller blade casters!

Roller Blades are nice!

I clean the casters often, and used other products once all the grime is removed from the portion in contact with the floor. My end result is no better than clean, but light gray. Any other coating options to get that surface black other than the product you used? I imagine some of the automobile part stores should have something. Thanks

It's a plastic based product so any plastic revitalizer will work. Especially like a microban cleaner would do well.
