Is there another colour under the matt paint you can see (primer?)?

Nope, its liturally just grazed to paint and made it slightly shiny. Hasnt broken through to the primer! Its almost like if you think about scratching your finger nail over matt paint and marking it.

Yeah, was going to suggest some wet and dry, but I'd try some plastic polish first to see if that helps.
