Odd surface texture. How do I fix?

For some reason two surfaces have a very strange surface texture (to the left of the buttons and on the right at the bottom). I don't know why this is. How do I get this to go away?

Thanks.

Ok so I remodelled the cell[phone cover from scratch. 1st pic is the model. The 2nd pic shows the rendered part where the strange surface is now in a different place.

Also see the model of the tyre (3rd pic). In alibre it looks fine. In keyshot I get what you see in the 4th pic!!

HELP!! I need to get this working ASAP!!

Ok I accidentally deleted that tyre project folder so I can't attach parts but I experimented a bit. Whenever I modelled the tyre using arcs/lines/fillets I got that weird effect in Keyshot. However when I modelled it using splines then keyshot displayed it properly. Very strange. Plus it wouldn't allow me to do anything other than a 'solid' tyre. I couldn't shell it or draw a 'hollowed-out' sketch. That'll probably have to go in a different thread though.

Here is the cellphone cover (re the strange surface texture)

Open your file with Alibre 12,1,0,12047.
Alibre -> Export -> *.bip
Import with KeyShot V1.9

Screenshot and Alibre *.bip (*.zip) file:

Thanks Ralf but as I mentioned in another thread my Alibre is 12044. My Keyshot is 1.9.54. Is there any other way to solve this? Really need to get it sorted.

Yes, as I mentioned in this "another" thread: You can download AD V 12,1,0,12047.
