I apperantly over filled one and when I charged it and I boiled it over. Now I have a pool of acid in the garage. SO here's the million doller question...How long does it stay caustic and what can ya use to neutralize it. I can mop up a good portion but there is some splatter and some items that got some acid on them.

Re: Battery acid ?

Put baking soda on it. That will neutralize it.<br /><br />When it dries it up just sweep it and put some vinegar on the floor to wash residual up.

Or,.....<br /><br />Flood it with Lots of Water......<br /><br />In other words,... wash the garage floor with the Hose...... Rinse it out the door......<br /><br />Just get it off the concrete..... It'll burn it Up......
