Are you embarrassed by bobbles on your seat? My alcantara seats were very badly bobbled to the extent I was considering looking for alternative seats. I had heard of bobble removers before but was fairly sceptical whether they would work. I found this one on Amazon:
Philips Fabric Shaver - bobble remover for clothes, blue (GC026/00)
It worked very well indeed. The drivers seat was the worst and and this device has transformed the seat and it now looks close to new. I'm sure there are other makes and models that do a similar job, but I can thoroughly recommend this one.

Re: Bobble remover
I used a battery powered bobble shaver from home base.

Re: Bobble remover
To be honest I was unaware that this was a non-issue, with solutions bobbling up all over the place!
