Product Description
The Dent Fix Aluspot Extended Aluminum Repair Station (SKU: DF-900DXE) is the ultimate, top-tier aluminum dent extraction system. Ford Approved and built for high-volume collision centers, this comprehensive workstation takes the capabilities of the Deluxe model and expands them with additional shaping tools, storage, and workflow features. It equips technicians with absolutely everything needed for the five critical stages of aluminum auto body repair: surface preparation, precision heating, stud welding, dent extraction, and final panel shaping.
To combat galvanic corrosion, a destructive reaction that occurs when steel tools leave microscopic particles on aluminum panels, the Aluspot Extended provides a strict, lockable ecosystem. All tools are kept completely isolated in a massive 5-drawer rolling cabinet. Powered by an ultra-fast 110V capacitor discharge stud welder with an integrated ground on the weld gun itself, this system allows technicians to perform highly efficient, flawless pulls without the hassle of setting up separate ground clamps.
Key Features
-
Ultimate Tool Isolation: Housed in a heavy-duty, lockable 5-drawer mobile cabinet (two more drawers than the Deluxe model) to guarantee your aluminum-specific tools never mix with steel, effectively preventing galvanic corrosion.
-
Integrated Ground Welder: Features a 110V capacitor discharge stud welder that recharges in less than 3 seconds. The specialized weld gun has two grounding points built directly into the gun, ensuring consistent welds and saving time on large panels like roofs or hoods.
-
Ford Approved System: Rigorously tested and certified for use on Ford aluminum vehicles (like the F-150), meeting the highest factory-level repair standards.
-
Expanded Shaping Arsenal: Includes everything in the Deluxe kit, plus the Aluminum-Head Hammer Set (3 pieces) and the massive 12-piece POM Nylon Dolly Set, giving you unparalleled versatility for finessing aluminum back to its original contour.
-
Optimized Workflow: The Extended model upgrades your bay with a built-in electrical power strip inside the cabinet and a convenient exterior holster specifically designed to hold the digital heat gun.
-
Precision Heat Control: Includes a digital set-temperature heat gun and an infrared temperature gauge to safely soften the work-hardened aluminum to the exact required temperature (typically around 400°F) before pulling.

Common Questions
Q: What is the difference between the Deluxe (DF-900DX) and the Extended (DF-900DXE)?
A: The Extended (DF-900DXE) model builds upon the Deluxe by adding two additional storage drawers (making it a 5-drawer cabinet), a built-in power strip, a side holster for the heat gun, a 3-piece Aluminum Hammer Set, and a comprehensive 12-piece POM Nylon Dolly Set for advanced metal shaping.
Q: Why does the weld gun have the ground attached directly to it?
A: Having the ground located on the weld gun itself (with two contact points on either side) leads to a much more consistent, successful weld. It also eliminates the hassle of grinding down a separate spot on the panel to attach a ground clamp, saving you unnecessary prep and refinish time, especially on large panels.
Q: Why is a heat gun and temperature gauge included in a dent puller kit?
A: Unlike steel, aluminum has a "memory" and work-hardens upon impact. If you try to pull a cold aluminum dent, the metal can easily crack, tear, or snap the stud. The heat gun is used to relax the aluminum, while the infrared gauge ensures you bring the panel to the precise, safe working temperature (approx. 400°F) before executing the pull.
