Product Description
Ford Escape 2020-2026 Stainless Molding Insert Kit, 4 Pieces, Adhesive Promoter Required (MI60360)
MI60360's record carries an instruction rather than a shape note: "Use Adhesive Promoter." This four-piece set of polished 304 stainless molding insert strips is listed for the Ford Escape 4-door SUV, model years 2020 through 2026, and that note is the first thing to plan around.
The adhesive promoter note
Adhesive promoter is a primer-type product applied to a surface before tape, to help the tape bond. The catalog says to use it with this kit, but doesn't say whether it's supplied, so plan to have some on hand. Apply it to the molding area where each strip will sit, after cleaning and before the strip goes on, following the instructions on the product you use. If you have questions about the note, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and mention MI60360.
No width on file
The record also lacks a width, in both the width field and the bullets. Rather than comparing a measurement against a number, compare the product photos with your Escape's moldings: how far the strips reach, how much of the molding face they cover, and how the ends are shaped. The width isn't given anywhere on the record.
Fitment
Ford Escape, 2020 to 2026, 4-door SUV, in one row. The title gives the same years. This one covers 2020 to 2026 Escapes.
Material and mounting
26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished, made in the USA. Mounting is 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface, so there's no drilling.
Installation order
Wash each molding with soap and water and dry it. Wipe with rubbing alcohol and let it flash off. Lay the four strips out by the photos and label each liner. Dry-fit each strip with the liner on and mark both ends with painter's tape. Then apply adhesive promoter within your marks and let it dry as its instructions direct. Peel the liner, set the strip on the marks, and press firmly from end to end. Step back after each strip and check the line. The Installation tab gives the temperature range for the tape.
Linked Escape parts
Six other parts share the SUV tag. PP60360 and PP60361 are pillar post sets of 4 and 6 pieces. GC60360 is a 1-piece gas door cover trim. LB60360 is a 1-piece license bar, an above-plate accent trim. TH60360 is an 8-piece rocker panel lower kit spanning from the bottom of the door up to the specified width, given as 3.5-4.25. DH60361 is a 1-piece tailgate handle accent trim. The adhesive promoter note on this sheet belongs to this molding kit; check each other listing for its own instructions.
Weather and timing
Promoter and tape both work best on a dry, mild day. Allow time for the promoter to dry before each strip goes on, and keep the Escape out of rain and away from its first wash for a while after you finish.
Care
Mild soap, water and a soft cloth keep polished stainless bright. Avoid steel wool and abrasive pads. Questions? 877-752-3811.

Installation tips: Body Molding Insert Trim Kit
- Unpack all 4 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place directly over the existing surface, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
