Armrest Bubbles...who's got 'em and what to do?
I searched to no avail.
Lately I've been noticing others with the clamshell style armrest have the same bubbling problem I do (where an air bubble develops seemingly just below the top layer of material on the armrest--mine is the one spot I put my elbow on--as expected).
Anyone know a fix?

i just did the heat/ice method yesterday and (no jinx) it still looks like new today. i'm keeping my fingers crossed that it stays, but i'll post updates if not.
btw...i used a VERY hot blowdryer (i'm glad i got some use out of my wife's ridiclously expensive blowdryer) for 10-15 seconds and a cold compress pack for 30-45 seconds (I pressed the pack firmly against the surface).
