Maserati · Mid-engined supercar (coupé and Cielo spyder)

Maserati MC20 paint protection and care

The MC20 is Maserati's mid-engined supercar, built around a carbon-fibre tub with butterfly doors, a low, clean nose and wide rear haunches. Its smooth surfaces show every chip and swirl, and the open Cielo adds a retractable glass roof to look after. BLN Auto Lab films the exposed bodywork, corrects the paint with restraint, and treats the leather, carbon and, where fitted, Alcantara with material-specific products.

What protection does a Maserati MC20 need in the UAE?

For a Maserati MC20 driven in the UAE, BLN Auto Lab suggests covering the whole car in paint protection film, because its low nose, sills and wide rear haunches all take chips on highway runs. A borophene or graphene coating goes on top. Cielo owners also need careful roof care, and every MC20 starts with a free inspection in Sharjah.

Where to protect first

Where the MC20 needs protection

  1. Low nose and badge

    The MC20's long, low nose meets sand first on fast drives, and chips around the trident badge and slim headlights are hard to miss on its smooth surface.

  2. Butterfly door edges

    The butterfly doors open upwards and outwards, so their front and lower edges can touch low ceilings, pillars or kerbs in tight car parks.

  3. Sills and lower doors

    Wide sills are stepped over every time you climb in, so shoes and bags scuff them, while road grit chips their lower edges on the highway.

  4. Wide rear haunches

    Grit from the front wheels strikes the MC20's wide rear haunches just ahead of the rear wheels, leaving chips that catch the light on darker colours.

  5. Cielo glass roof

    The Cielo's retractable glass roof heats up in direct sun and shows water spots, and sand in its seals can scratch the glass as the roof moves.

Recommended

BLN's treatments for the MC20

  • PPF (Paint protection film)

    Full-body film is the natural choice for the MC20, fitted around the butterfly door edges, slim headlights and trident badge. At minimum, protect the whole front, the sills and the rear haunch edges.

  • Upholstery

    Leather repair, re-colouring and re-trimming that respects Maserati's natural-grain hides and stitching details, quoted after consultation.

  • Ceramic coating

    3-year and 5-year 9H-rated ceramic systems that keep deep Maserati blues and blacks glossy and easier to wash.

  • Graphene coating

    Graphene over the film and paint gives the MC20's clean surfaces a deep, slick gloss, so dust from Sharjah and Dubai roads rinses off with little contact.

Finish and materials

What we take care with

  • Cielo roof glass is cleaned with non-abrasive glass cleaner only, and BLN brushes sand out of the roof seals before the mechanism is operated again.
  • Carbon-fibre trim, if specified, keeps its lacquer clear under a UV-resistant coating, with satin-finish carbon treated using matte-safe products only.
  • Wheels are cleaned with non-acidic products, which protects carbon-ceramic discs on cars that have them and the caliper finish on every car.

Good to know

Maserati MC20 questions

Does the Maserati MC20 need full-body PPF?

In most cases, yes. Chips appear first on the nose, sills and rear haunches, but on the MC20's smooth bodywork even small parking marks stand out. Covering every painted panel brings BLN's 10-year film warranty, terms apply, while front-end film suits a car that is rarely driven.

How do I look after the glass roof on an MC20 Cielo?

Keep sand away from the seals and avoid wiping the glass dry. Rinse the roof before cleaning, use a soft microfibre with a non-abrasive glass cleaner, and have the seals checked and cleared at the studio. BLN never applies paint coatings or polish to the roof glass.

Can BLN clean the carbon and leather inside a Maserati MC20?

Yes. Leather is cleaned with a pH-balanced cleaner and conditioned, Alcantara is brushed and cleaned gently where fitted, and carbon trim is wiped with non-scratch cloths. Sand comes out of the footwells and seat edges first, so nothing is ground into the materials.
