Try to locate the battery inside your car and check if there are is white, rusty or blue flaky substances on top of the battery terminals. If you find corrosion around car battery terminals, try to identify the reasons. Corrosion appears in the form of a rust layer on battery and cable terminals. Corrosion on terminals occurs for two main reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The terminal and the cable end are made of different types of metals.<\/li><li>The battery is producing hydrogen when it is being recharged.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several reasons which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubizzle.com\/blog\/cars\/car-battery-corrosion-causes-removal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cause car battery corrosion<\/a>; however, it is important to keep them clean to extend the battery&#8217;s life. Corrosion on battery connections can be removed using a few different methods.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-remove-the-cables-from-the-battery-terminals\">Remove the Cables from the Battery Terminals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To properly clean corroded battery terminals, you will need to disconnect the positive and negative battery cable ends. It is important to note here that the battery contains acid in its composition, which can cause eye and skin injuries. Hence, it is better to wear eye protection and gloves. Here is how you can remove the cables:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>1st step<\/strong>: Release the ends of the battery cable. Start by removing the negative cable first. To do this, simply fit the battery cable wrench onto the nut at the end of the battery cable and turn it counterclockwise.<\/li><li><strong>2nd step<\/strong>: Loosen the nuts and the cable end. Sometimes it is necessary to make a little movement and apply a little force to unhook the cables, which may be glued to the terminals due to corrosion.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-method-1-cleaning-the-battery-terminals-with-household-items\">Method 1: Cleaning the Battery Terminals with Household Items<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Clean car battery properly\" class=\"wp-image-48366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-421x263.jpg 421w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-558x349.jpg 558w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-363x227.jpg 363w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-250x156.jpg 250w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-368x230.jpg 368w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-774x484.jpg 774w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-672x420.jpg 672w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-437x273.jpg 437w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-301x188.jpg 301w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-240x150.jpg 240w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-771x482.jpg 771w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-669x418.jpg 669w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093046\/ca-battery-031620220223-435x272.jpg 435w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Cleaning a car battery properly extends its useful life<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It is not always necessary to use specialised materials to properly clean corroded battery terminals. A few simple household items can clean your battery and restore a proper connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Materials needed:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Baking soda<\/li><li>Vaseline<\/li><li>Hard bristle or metal brush<\/li><li>Water<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>With these materials in hand, follow the steps below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-1-sprinkle-baking-soda\">Step 1: Sprinkle Baking Soda&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sprinkle a handful of baking soda on both battery terminals. Use enough powder to coat the entire terminal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-2-add-water\">Step 2: Add Water<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Put two tablespoons of water in each terminal. The baking soda will react for a few seconds. This reaction between the sodium bicarbonate mixture, water and corrosion on the battery terminals neutralises the corrosion acid, making it safe to handle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-4-scrub-the-terminals\">Step 4: Scrub the Terminals&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you immediately need to scrub the terminals right after neutralising corrosion with a stiff bristle brush. Scrub the entire battery terminal as well as the cable end, inside and out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-5-rinse-with-water\">Step 5: Rinse with Water<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When all corrosion is removed, rinse the battery and cable end with water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-6-dry-the-battery-completely\">Step 6: Dry the Battery Completely<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Let the battery dry completely. You can dry the battery and terminals with the help of a cloth or air compressor if you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-7-apply-petroleum-jelly\">Step 7: Apply Petroleum Jelly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Spread Vaseline on the battery terminals. A thin layer of petroleum jelly will facilitate the flow of electricity between the battery terminal and the cable end while protecting the battery terminals from corrosion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-method-2-cleaning-battery-corrosion-with-professional-equipment\">Method 2: Cleaning Battery Corrosion with Professional Equipment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Apply spray to clean the car battery\" class=\"wp-image-48369\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-421x263.jpg 421w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-558x349.jpg 558w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-363x227.jpg 363w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-250x156.jpg 250w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-368x230.jpg 368w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-774x484.jpg 774w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-672x420.jpg 672w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-437x273.jpg 437w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-301x188.jpg 301w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-240x150.jpg 240w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-771x482.jpg 771w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-669x418.jpg 669w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16093351\/ca-battery-031620220229-435x272.jpg 435w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Apply spray to remove the rust on the battery<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>There are some products made specifically for removing corrosion.
