2015 Maserati Touch Up Paint (10 OEM Colors)

The 2015 Maserati Vibe

2015 was the year the Trident decided to invite everyone to the party. With the Ghibli and the redesigned Quattroporte hitting the streets en masse, Maserati was trading exclusive garage-queen status for daily-driver "Italian Cool." The color palette followed suit-sophisticated, deep, and meant to be seen under city lights. We've locked down the era's heavy hitters in our database, from the sinister sparkle of Nero Ribelle Mica to the liquid-look Rosso Folgore Metallic and the classic Blanco Eldorado. It was a year of high-fashion finishes that made every parking lot look like a valet stand in Milan.

Paint Health Check

Welcome to the "Thin Paint Era." By 2015, the craftsmen in Modena had largely handed the spray guns over to high-precision robots. These machines are incredibly efficient, but they're also stingy; they apply the clear coat with surgical thinness to save on weight and material. The result? These cars are notorious for "orange peel"-that slight wavy texture in the clear coat that you'll see if you catch the light just right on a Grigio Granito Metallic fender. More importantly, because the finish is so shallow, those low-slung noses are absolute magnets for stone chips. One spirited highway run and your Ruby Red Tricoat hood can end up looking like it took a round of birdshot.

Restoration Tip

When you're staring down a chip on a 2015 model, leave the "one-and-done" mindset at the door. Because the factory paint is so thin, a heavy glob of touch-up will sit on the surface like a mountain. The secret is to build your repair in microscopic layers. Dab a tiny amount into the center of the chip, let it shrink and dry, and then come back for a second pass. If you're working with a complex finish like Bianco Birdcage or any of the Tricoats, patience is your only friend. Build the color slowly until it's just a hair below the surrounding clear coat, then seal it. You're trying to match robot precision with human patience-don't rush the dry time.
