Clean And Prevent Battery Corrosion
Most drivers don’t pay attention to what’s under the hood of modern cars. If the car runs fine and starts every time you turn the key or push a button, then there is no reason to even pop the hood open. Only when difficulty starting the engine arises, most common thing to do is to check out the battery and terminal connections.
It is very common to see some traces of battery acid on older batteries, when acid vapor vents from the battery it may leave wet spots on top or sides of the older, used battery. During charging cycle battery acid vapor reacts with copper terminal connectors creating green and blue colored corrosion on positive or negative battery posts.
