Certified Aluminum Auto Body Repair Shop

The use of aluminum in vehicle construction continues to increase with each model year. Some vehicles are constructed almost entirely out of aluminum, while others may only have certain parts and panels made of aluminum, such as the hood, fenders, doors, and trunk lid. Aluminum is also commonly used in mechanical parts. When aluminum is used for exterior panels, the benefit is less weight with strength similar to steel.

Aluminum vs Steel

Typically, aluminum panels will be thicker than a steel panel and still weigh less. Aluminum panels may be used in conjunction with aluminum, magnesium, steel, or composite materials

Aluminum Panel Repair

Aluminum repairs are much different than steel. Steel has “metal memory” which means it easily can be returned to its original structure. Aluminum is more pliable and special tools are needed to repair dents. Aluminum also reacts differently to heat. Too much heat can compromise the integrity of aluminum. Due to this act, many vehicles with extensive aluminum components use alternative methods to connect parts besides welding.

At Regal Repair our technicians are equipped with advanced knowledge and modern tools to repair aluminum panels to meet car manufacturer standards.

process
1. Assessment & Disassembly. The first step in the auto body repair process is determining the full extent of your vehicle’s damage. During this phase, the components of your car will be disassembled and examined so your auto body mechanic can give you the clearest picture of the damage and what must be done to mitigate it, as well as provide an estimate for the work.
2. Repair. Once a repair plan has been made, your auto body technician will order any parts necessary and complete the repairs outlined on your estimate. This may include replacement or repairs of internal and external components of your car.
3. Paint. After repairs have been completed, the exterior of your vehicle will receive auto body paint to repair cosmetic damage and seamlessly match any new components with the existing body of your car.
4. Reassembly & Auto Detailing. Finally, your car is reassembled and all systems are checked to ensure repairs are complete and each system is functioning properly. Your car will be cleaned and any auto detailing needed is completed so you will receive your car from the auto body shop in beautiful and ready-to-drive condition.
