How can I clean car battery corrosion?
I opened my hood the other day and saw all of this light blue stuff around my battery. Apparently, it’s called corrosion and it's normal but should be removed. How do you clean car battery corrosion?

You’re right, car battery corrosion is normal but should be taken care of. Luckily, it’s an easy process to do so.
Before you get started, take proper safety precautions and wear gloves and protective eyewear.
Once you’re ready, pour baking soda over the corroded areas then once covered, add a little bit of water to neutralize the battery acid. You can use a paper towel to wipe up the corrosion and scrub away any stubborn bits with a sponge or brush.
And you’re done! If only something as tedious as
