Q: I used to work for an organization. The organization used to house all employees in flats or apartments. The rent as well as the levy, water and light bills used to be paid by them. It is stated in the lease contract of the apartment that upon leaving, the tenant should get the place painted. The organization did not mention to me, when I moved in, that I will have to bear the cost of the painting.

I realised after a few days I was sitting there I took out the seat and washed it. People have sat on the chair and touched the spot and touched other places. I don't know if hands were wet or if impurity was on the chair or has spread. Is the whole chair impure as it is covered in cloth material. How can I make it pure. I'm feeling very distressed.
