How to improve Alcantara ?

Post by IanD » Sat Apr 02, 2011 9:51 am

The light grey alcantara on the dash is looking a bit rubbed in 2 bits.
Anybody found easy ways to make some improvement to this without doing anything radical ?
I don't want to start experimenting on something so visible and make it any worse. Most common idea I have seen on the web is to run a razor lightly over it.

electric shavers are good for getting rid of bobbling.
