Aluminum Repair Capable
Marquis Auto Body is equipped and trained to repair aluminum-intensive vehicles — with dedicated tooling, a separate work area, and aluminum-specific repair techniques.
What Aluminum Repair Capable Means
Aluminum repair isn't a manufacturer certification — it's a specialized capability that requires dedicated tooling, a separate aluminum-only work area, and technicians trained specifically in aluminum repair techniques. Aluminum behaves completely differently from steel: it doesn't weld the same way, it reacts differently to heat, and steel contamination can cause corrosion. A shop without the proper aluminum equipment and training should not be repairing aluminum panels.
Aluminum Repair Capable
Marquis Auto Body is equipped and trained for aluminum-intensive vehicle repair, maintained through ongoing training.
Vehicles Covered
Modern Ford F-150s (2015+) and other aluminum-intensive vehicles. Call us with your vehicle's year, make, and model and we'll confirm whether it has aluminum body panels.
What This Capability Means for Your Vehicle
Proper Repair Methods
More and more vehicles use aluminum body panels and structures — Ford's F-150 has been aluminum-bodied since 2015, and aluminum is increasingly common across many modern vehicles. Improperly repaired aluminum is invisible to the eye but compromises the vehicle's structural integrity and can cause long-term corrosion issues.
Warranty Compliance
Using a properly equipped shop for your aluminum repair helps protect your vehicle's factory warranty by ensuring repairs meet manufacturer standards and use approved parts and procedures.
Specialized Tooling On-Site
Aluminum repair requires dedicated equipment kept separate from steel work. We have invested in and maintain the dedicated tooling and workspace required for aluminum repair — it's not improvised.
Contamination Control
Aluminum repair requires completely separate tools from steel repair — the same grinder, welder, or hammer used on steel cannot be used on aluminum without risk of contamination. Our dedicated aluminum workspace and aluminum-specific tooling meet the requirements for proper repair.
