I've had my Alienware 14 laptop for an year now and I was trying to clean the touchpad when I saw it looked like had a scratch on it, so I kept trying to get rid of it, but it only got worse. I realized it was the actual touchpad's plastic/top layer of some sort, and I scratched almost half of it off trying to get rid of the look of it being scratched off
Looks like this now:

I have the same issue, but I recently called Dell and they said it was a 'billable' item.
I had the impression this was under warranty as the paint shouldn't have come off and damaged the touchpad sensor.
