copper ease grease would sort the squeaks out, just smear back of pads with it
I’m not sure I could bring myself to do that. The financial consequences of contamination don’t bear thinking about!
I completely agree, I have a tin of it in the garage and use it on all of the steel braked cars I work on. But near a £3k carbon disc? I’ll probably get used to the occasional squeal, it’s a potentially ruinous c0ck up opportunity.
It's normal and good practice, both by garages/workshops and if you do your own, you only smear a very small amount, impossible to contaminate anything unless you're completely careless, been doing it on all my motors for donkeys years and never had a squeal

Not sure if I trust myself to do this, never done it before and would not even know where to start. I guess you need to take the pad off and apply grease? Just not technical enough to do this.
Where are my wellies (BS allert)!!!
Always have done my own brakes, always have applied copperslip to the correct points, never have had squeaky brakes. The Maserati blurb linked above is just to support the service sales people convincing you to change parts early and pony up for the pleasure!
I used to work at Maserati.
I cannot tell you how many times I had brake squeal jobs booked in.
They still have issues on ghibli, levantes and qp’s too. They’ve now changed pad compound
