There Are STARK differences between working with steel versus aluminum. Only thing the two have in common are its metal properties.

For example, aluminum doesn’t respond nearly as well to heat, making it far more difficult to mold and shape at will. Aluminum is lighter, yet stronger; tougher, and resilient. It requires more patience and tender, lovin’ care. Steel, on the other hand, only needs to be wined and dined.

When aluminum is bent or damaged, it takes special tools like an aluminum dent pulling station to not only extract the dents but ‘reshape’ them to your cars exterior.

Lastly, aluminum and steel are like Cain and Abel; they do NOT get along. In fact, they’re corrosive to each other.

If shavings from one metal makes contact with the panel of the other, damage is near instantaneous. You can’t even use tools previously used to repair steel tp repair aluminum without causing considerable damage.

In other words…

…aluminum body panel repair is no cake walk.

Given how more than 95% of vehicles on the road today are made entirely from aluminum (for pricier vehicles, carbon fiber, andolder vehicles, pure steel), you need aluminum EXPERTS like ourselves, not steel benders, to do the job the right way.

It’s a special set of skills different from that which is required to bend and shape steel.

If you’re getting better pricing to do comparable work, look to see if they work with aluminum. Ask for before and after pictures. Request customer references. Do your due diligence. Do the same with us. We have the track record to prove it. Sometimes non-professionals will undercut our pricing to get the sale, overpromising and underdelivering.
