How to clean acid overflowed from battery ?
My battery was under the minimum line, so I added distilled water last week and I added too much. The area around the battery are now show some signs of acid. How do I clean those area effected by acid ? Thanks

xviper always has good answers...
i would only add to be cautious with the rinse- very light water flow... you dont want that stuff on the paint.
and i would dry off the interior with rags that i dont care about (probably would trash them after). and my final step would be to drive the car until it warms up (the heat will evaporate any moisture that you dont get with the towels).

You must know something that I don't.
I thought that some acid may be under the battery, removing it will let me clean that area.

Unless you dumped a good deal of the battery's contents, it shouldn't be necessary to do that much cleaning.
