Cadillac Escalade - Video tutorial

Model: Cadillac Escalade Gmtk2xl - Years 2015-2020
Part: Grille
Operation: Customize the Cadillac Escalade by painting the chrome front grille black.

If your Cadillac Escalade is black or dark metallic gray - or if you simply don't like the chrome triumph that is the front grille - this video is for you: the YouTuber teaches us how to best mask the front of the Cadillac Escalade, using body shop tape and additional paper to avoid the risk of spraying the bodywork. After covering the grille, the beautiful logo in the center, and a good part of the hood and fenders, we can move on to spray painting. A good can of paint costs between 8.96 and 24.00 euros on major e-commerce platforms: it depends on the brand and the amount of paint in the can. Here, a considerable amount is needed because the grille is very large. Start painting. Judge the level of coverage you desire, whether you want one coat or two. Let it dry well in the air for at least 24 hours. In fact, the black grille is much more beautiful and less flashy.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
