Welcome Matt!

I don’t have any experience but this has come up before. If you polish matte, it will no longer be matte, so there really isn’t a way to do correction and keep the same sheen.

Dr. Beasley’s has a line of matte products but notice what you don’t see, any polishes for matte.

And here’s a post from AGO that pretty much says the same thing I already have. If they want the finish to be corrected, they will have to live with the new sheen and it won’t be matte.
Matte paint correction - is it possible without repainting?
