      Comments about CRC Battery Cleaner with Acid Indicator:

      Works as advertised. I had a ton of fuzzy acid growth on the positive terminal of my wife's 2006 Subaru Outback. It took several applications and some scrubbing to get rid of all of it, but it did work. Best thing about the product is its turning pink when in contact with acid. I could see that the acid was present on more than just the battery terminal--it was all over everything within 12-15 inches of the battery.

        Comments about CRC Battery Cleaner with Acid Indicator:

        I normally use baking soda and water to clean the battery up, but needed to spend a couple more dollars to use a discount code. This worked pretty well, although it is a little messy using it in the engine compartment to clean the connectors. All in all I was happy with it, but since you have to rinse everything anyway after using it, I will probably just go back to baking oda and water when this can runs out.

          This stuff blows away the cleaner handed out in the shop at Toyota and Honda! I was very suprised how well it cleaned a big blob on a positive battery cable. I sprayed it on heavy, went to grab my battery brush, came back and everything was clean! Cleaned it off with some brake cleaner (Careful here) and then put a protective spray coating on it.

                Comments about CRC Battery Cleaner with Acid Indicator:

                Actually turns pink in color when in contact with acid, will show you that it's working to neutrilize the acid. Easy to wipe off and clean. Only reason why I didn't give it the best rating is because it won't make the corrosion come off by itself, you will still have to scrape and put some work into it with a wire brush..

                  It cleans very good. I used a wire brush before I sprayed it. After that, just follow directions and you're good to go. Not complicated, great price, and easy to use.

                    I work for a major insurance company roadside service and this is probably the best battery cleaner I've used. It works super fast and it's great for terminals as well as hold downs. It neutralizes immediately and just clean it off with a wire brush and paper towel and you're good to go.
