I've used the "real" aluminum arc welding rods a few times and
have been impressed.  While you don't have the quality or control
of TIG, depending on what you are doing they do work quite well,
you definitely couldn't repair anything thin though and on most
jobs I still prefer TIG. 
Sorry, I can't remember the brand name.
