Down with battery acid!

Post by Manach »

Hiya all!

I just bought a SRD tie bar for my battery. Prob was, well, there was a acid as big as a ping-pong ball. At first, I didn't know what to do, I ask on the mailing list, and they said.. USE PEPSI! Huh, I tried..

5 pepsi cans later..

:D :D :D :D :D :D

I didn't took pics before.. as I never thought that would work!

If your trying to clean acid, use baking soda and make a paste with water mix it around on the acid spill, then rinse, if your trying to clean the aluminum that was damaged by acid, they try some aluminum pollish.
