Default ipe + messmers deck

I built a ipe deck and rolled on messmers UV for hardwoods. It's about
2 weeks later now, and it LOOKS great, but it seems to scratch VERY
easily. If I drag a 5 lb deck chair across it, it appears to be
scraping the messmers finish off. Do I need to apply something else
over Messmers? Or does it take longer than a couple weeks to dry? Im
upset my brand new perfect deck is starting to look like crap, I have
to go do all this touchup work now.. Any comments/suggestions?

Thanks,
