So I’m in the gym trying to find my ever elusive abs again and I keep thinking is everyone doing this; working tirelessly to be fit.  Sometimes it works, and other times it doesn’t.  Some days I’m good and other days, well, just bad.

Though those bad days can’t be fixed, the team at Allston Collision Center, Inc. can fix Aluminum, Bronze and Steel, the other kind of ABS.

Vehicles like Tesla, BMW, Mercedes Benz, Range Rover, Audi, Porsche, and the Ford F-150 are all built primarily with aluminum.  Aluminum offers a lighter weight vehicle which assists with gas mileage and aerodynamics.  It also makes for specialized repair work.

In 2016, when Allston Collision Center, Inc. purchased the Multi-Mig 522, I thought the future was trending toward using more aluminum. Now in 2018, it seems I may have been right; more manufacturers are using aluminum including Toyota, Nissan and ACC recently worked on a 2010 Saab with an aluminum hood.

Similar to my thinking on going with water-based paint processes, I believe investing in the Multi-Mig 522 and keeping technicians on the newest trends will keep Allston Collision Center on par with car manufacturers as well as looking to the future.

Not only are ACC technicians proficient in aluminum but they work on mixed metal vehicles, so our techs cover every car made.

If you want more information on ABS, Aluminum, Steel, and Bronze that is, you can look up my earlier blog on our website.

ABS also stands for Automatic Braking System and guess what Allston Collision Center can work on these ABS too.  We are a full-service body shop which includes mechanical work.

The team works with each customer to make sure their job is done right.  Maybe you need a tow or a rental car – our team works with you, the customer, to get all the details covered.  Allston Collision Center’s strategy is to use all our combined knowledge to help make an accident as painless as possible.

Well, in the end, ACC can’t make anyone, including me, go to the gym to get you washboard abs, but we’ll do all we can to fix your other ABS!

In 2016 the MultiMig 522 was added to Allston Collision Center’s arsenal of equipment, which also includes the latest aluminum capable stud welders and the MultiTool Aluminum Dent Repair Station. We are fully capable of welding and brazing all aluminum alloys, galvanized sheet metal, stainless, high-strength steel and ultra-high-strength steel.

The high-strength and ultra-high-strength steels are used in the making of several vehicles and is considered a “dream” material on the manufacturing side. These materials are light weight to handle, reduce overall weight and increase safety. That being said, the repairing side is another story indeed. Prior to the acquisition of this equipment it was impossible to repair damage to a vehicle that included these products so our only option was replacement. Now Allston Collision Center has all the latest equipment along with our ICAR Certifications, which keeps us in the fast lane with the manufacturers. Allston Collision Center is constantly striving for the best repair systems and quality which gives our customers the best in body work and service.

As an added bonus, we are always looking at the Green side of the equation and in keep with our long standing resolution to be Green, the MultiMig 522 is considered to be Green technology. It utilizes Integrated Power Factor Correction which reduces input power thus avoiding energy waste found in other electronics. Ultimately there is a reduction in input power and wasted energy, which reduces operating costs as well. A Win Win in our book.

Allston Collision Center is committed to Green Technology, quality work and customer service. Please stop by to see if we can assist you with your vehicle.
