March 23, 2016—Chief Automotive announced Tuesday that General Motors has approved Chief’s aluminum-specific tools and equipment for repairing collision damage for the aluminum intensive 2016 Cadillac CT6.
Among Chief’s new GM-approved collision repair products is its dust and fume extractors, aluminum dent repair station, MIG welder, collet set, and structural holding package.
“Chief has the largest installed base of collision repair systems in North America, so pairing the approved Chief equipment you already own with our approved aluminum-specific shop tools and equipment is an easy, cost-effective way to qualify for CT6 certification” says Richard Perry, OEM and strategic account manager for Chief. “We worked closely with GM to develop a portfolio of aluminum-specific tools and equipment that fulfills the new and unique repair demands of the CT6.
