Q: If I dip my denim jacket in heavy starch to make it rigid, will it help in the overall fading?

Starching will re-stiffen the denim jacket and will make it more likely to fade in the new stress points, but they are much less likely to line up with the old fades from pre-starching and possibly not give you the look you were hoping for.

Also, starching might possibly wear the jacket out faster due to concentrating the stress on those points rather than evenly throughout the garment.
