Ugh, sorry, I meant to type "rubber" and typed "plastic" instead. Rubber both resists scratches and permanent deformation, no?

You're asking if rubber is considered hard? What type of rubber do you have in mind?

Any, I guess. Tyre rubber is not easily deformed permanently, although I guess it is easy to scratch.
