Vorsteiner CSL Trunk Problem

I recently got the Vorsteiner CSL Trunk and when I was washing my car the other day I found out I can easily leave a mark on the trunk by just softly pressing down on the trunk with my nails!!! The mark will eventually disappear but it seems like it's still there just not as bad as when I first pressed it down. It's like the trunk is soft or like a sponge!!! Anyone else notice this? Is this normal? If yes why?

The clear coat whether on your trunk or the car itself can be scratched. Although when you say it disappears, I'm not really sure what the problem is.

I just got the trunk.
It's like you are pressing down on a sponge, it goes down but comes back up. Even though it comes back up I don't think it's 100%. I can still see minor marks.
