I guess the untested ultrasuede was a bad choice over velveteen or felt. Will try some other options, before reaching for the electric razor to take that ultrasuede down a few notches ......

That is an odd choice for the table felt.

Back in the mid 90's our group was tired of playing on various kitchen tables and decided to make a table. So a couple of the guys hand built a pretty nice octagonal table with chip wells, etc. The only problem was they used felt that gradeschoolers use to make puppets out of for the table and it was terrible. We initially thought the balls of green felt that came off would eventually go away leaving a nice smooth surface. Fortunately, that table has since been retired...

I think your best bet would be to go get some real covering- either what they put on real poker tables or pool tables. Call a home recreation place and ask.
