Hozzászólás küldése: Just bought a used Levante and the paint is in rough shape

<blockquote><div class="quotetitle">Idézet tőle:  Guest ekkor: 2026-08-28, 12:30</div><span class="">So I finally did it and picked up a 2017 Levante that I've been eyeing for a while, and honestly the car drives absolutely beautifully – that Ferrari-derived V6 is just intoxicating and it handles way better than any SUV has the right to – but I've got to be honest, the paintwork is in a bit of a sorry state and it's really letting the whole car down. The previous owner clearly loved the car mechanically but I don't think they paid much attention to the exterior because there are swirl marks everywhere, a few light scratches on the doors, and the front bumper has picked up a fair amount of stone chips that are really noticeable against the dark blue paint. I knew about this when I bought it and I factored it into the price, so I'm not complaining, but now I need to get it sorted and I want to make sure I'm handing it over to people who actually know how to deal with Maserati paint properly. I've been doing some research and came across a really helpful page at </span><a href="https://exoticcarcare.ae/maserati-detailing-abu-dhabi/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span class="">https://exoticcarcare.ae/maserati-detailing-abu-dhabi/</span></a><span class=""> that explains the different options available and what sort of results you can expect from a proper detail, which has helped me understand what I should be looking for in a good detailer. I'm planning to get a full paint correction done to get rid of the swirls and scratches, and then probably a ceramic coating to protect it going forward because I want to keep this car looking good for as long as possible. The interior is in decent shape thankfully – just needs a good clean and some leather conditioner – so it's really the exterior that needs the most attention. Has anyone else had a Maserati paint correction done locally, and were you happy with the results? I'm particularly keen to hear about places that have experience with these cars because I know Italian paint can be a bit tricky and I don't want to end up with someone who doesn't understand the specific challenges. Also, any advice on whether ceramic coating is worth it on a daily driver like this would be great, because I'm still a bit on the fence about whether to go for it or just stick with a good wax. The car is going to be used pretty much every day so I want something that's going to offer decent protection without needing constant maintenance, but I also don't want to spend a fortune on something that might not deliver the results I'm hoping for. Any experiences or recommendations would be hugely appreciated because I want to get this sorted as soon as possible and stop feeling embarrassed about the state of the paint every time I park next to a clean car.</span></blockquote><br>
