Matte Spray for Suit Coats

This is what I get for being broke.

Problem: My favorite black suit jacket, which is admittedly from the bargain-bin price range at Men's Wearhouse, is starting to develop shiny spots on the elbow (caused by the fabric being rubbed during use and stretched when bent).

Unfortunate corollary: This makes me look cheap. Er.

Solution: A self-contained matte spray, specially designed for fabrics (airbrush paint for fabrics is WKTE, but I'm not aware of any self-contained clearcoats), which would be applied by owners, and which would protect the wearer's ego by making the worn-ness of the suit less obvious.

       Try a black permanent marker, makes it black and matte.

       There used to be some scalp spray for balding men, to make things dark and unshiny.

       I've used the black marker idea if I had a bleach spot on black clothing, but only a small spot.
