Ok, I had the same problem- a nice black blazer, probably polyester-based, but nice-- rarely wrinkled, hung nice. Well, I stupidly ironed it, and the lapels got shiny. I tried the vinegar solution that I found all over the internet- it didn't work. I think with any polyester-based fabric, any high heat will just melt the fibers beyond repair. I am bummed, because it had a very cool curved lapel line, not angular, and I haven't found another one like it. Was perfect for cowl-type necline dressy tanks underneath. Should've dry cleaned it. Darn. Good luck.
