85252, coke+battery acid = gone? Posted by WarnerC, Jan-26-05 06:48 AM I have some battery acid on one of my terminals and people have been telling me to pour a little coca cola on it and it should dissolve it away? | |

85260, RE: coke+battery acid = gone? Posted by xcasbonx, Jan-26-05 08:30 AM It will work, just kinda messy. Use that or either go to the parts store and look for some battery post cleaner. You'll probably be due for a battery soon though. | |

85309, RE: coke+battery acid = gone? Posted by JWoodley, Jan-26-05 01:56 PM Use some sand paper or a wire brush. Then you can spray some terminal guard on them. Its a little spray can of stuff and works wonders. | |
