It's also a good practice to clean the entire top of the battery case. Acid mist from off-gassing can combine with the dust and create a conductive path all the way across the top to the opposite terminal and cause a constant low-level drain. Use a damp paper towel followed by a dry one and you're good to go.
Warm water + Baking Soda. Job done.
Baking soda works great.
Very good procedure and guided car Cleaning Battery
Good Job
Very well explained on how to clean battery terminals thanks 👍🏾👍🏾
Good information. Noco does make some very good products.
Thanks for the tutorial. 👍👍.
Nice job. Thank you.
I’ve always used the red/green felt terminal rings. I never knew they made that type. Thanks.
When I worked in a shop, I think ours were a deep red. They were very "wet". They worked great. We used them on every install.
I highly recommend Ncp2 battery corrosion preventative spray and distilled water
I used to use a Permatex anti-corrosion spray but I like the coverage better with this brush on protection. It is easier to get in the nooks and crannies. I still do like spray on occasion. It is nice for hold down hardware. I'll have to try the NCP2 spray as I have been happy with their other products. Thanks for the recommendation!
acid free vaseline is what i use on battery terminal after i clean oxide or corrosion.
is there a certain amount of time I should wait after putting the anti corrosion stuff on the battery to start my car
So if I wanna jump start my battery would I have to clean the red stuff sprayer or just started in like that
How often should the battery corrosion prevention stuff be applied? I bought the NCP2 spray to prevent corussion. But the instructions do not say how often it should be applied to prevent corussion.
I typically apply corrosion protection when I am installing the battery. It generally lasts the life of the battery so long as you don't wash or wipe it off. It usually works very well but when I do see corrosion after applying the protectant, it is typically on a spot on the terminal that was missed. I like the brush applicator since it allows me to get into nooks and crannies.
Any feedback review about it ?
I just checked on it and there wasn't a hint of corrosion. When I worked in a shop, the similar anti-corrosion rings we used worked great.
Bro if I was a battery tech and saw that goop on there I’d make u wipe that crap off. Pads are the best and just stay on your maintenance and clean ur damn terminals every couple months
If you prefer cleaning terminals every few months, go for it. I prefer using the protectant and not messing with them. In my experience as a battery tech, I can tell you most people ignore their corrosion until it is too late. I replaced a lot of terminals due to this.
hi, that cable between positive and negative terminals, what cable is that and where they are connect? I have in my car and is losing, no connect anything.
That is a wire I installed to connect my battery tender. I use it to keep my battery charged when I don't drive it for a long time.
@@Rickmakes Thanks for let me know. I just removed mine.
Hit the highway and drive for 25miles going and coming.
Why didn't you clean the top of the battery?
I could have but it isn't vital to the performance of the battery. I could wipe it with a wet cloth. You want to be careful about using chemicals to clean it as you could accidentally remove labels and date codes (used for battery warranty). Some batteries also have recessed battery caps that you don't want to flood with water.
You voluntarily open the hood of your vehicle :-o
Whats the importance of the terminal pads?
To me it is a belt and suspenders approach. Often times the top of a terminal might have a corrosion preventative but the bottom of the terminal is unprotected because it is hard to apply preventative there. The rings give good protection under the terminal while the brush on coating protects the top.
@Rickmakes oh OK I just cleaned my terminals and noticed I didn't have any so I was just asking because I don't have them.
The pads are usually impregnated with an agent to neutralise the acidic vapour which escapes from between the plastic body of the battery and the post.
Disconnecting your batter will effect your brain and it will have to reset and may poss issues after. Using HOT water without disconnecting works great.
Yes, it can upset the brain. Hot water can work but it depends on the extent of the corrosion. It also can be worth it to disconnect if the terminals weren't cleaned properly when the battery was installed. I have seen countless problems that stemmed from dirty or loose connections.
is this the same as dialectic grease?
Dielectric grease is silicone based. This is oil based. It doesn't seem to be the same stuff. Dielectric grease could work but I would think it might be hard to clean off if it got on the conducting part of the terminals.
Dielectric grease is better and is the stuff you are suppose to use instead of petrolatum and is much versatile for spark plug boots and cable connectors. Dielectric grease will not run when hot, waterproof nor will it attack wiring jacket material like a petroleum based product. I use the NOCO NCP2 anti-corrosion terminal pads, but use dielectric grease on the metal terminal posts. Just because this product was made in 1914 doesn't mean it is the best product for today's use !
Your making it more complicated then it has to be. Just boil hot water and pour a cup hot water over the cable no need to disconnect. I put a bit of baking soda a too. It fizzles like soda and dissolves immediately!
