Aluminum Repair

Overview

Modern Ford F-150s and many luxury vehicles use aluminum body panels that demand isolated tooling, dedicated work areas, and trained technicians. Bruner Collision & Glass maintains a separate aluminum repair bay to prevent galvanic corrosion and meet manufacturer standards.

Aluminum behaves nothing like steel. It work-hardens, it can't be heated past tight temperature limits, and any contamination from steel dust or shavings starts corrosion that won't show up until months later. That's why aluminum repair requires its own clean room, its own tools, and technicians trained specifically for it.

Our aluminum bay is isolated from the steel side of the shop and uses dedicated rivet guns, pulling equipment, welders, and dust extraction. Every panel repair, replacement, or structural pull is performed to the manufacturer's published procedure — no shortcuts.

If your vehicle is an aluminum-bodied truck or SUV, ask for an aluminum-certified shop. That is exactly what we are built for.

Aluminum repair done wrong leads to corrosion and structural failure. We do it the way the manufacturer requires.
