If you use the Coke hack I'd follow it up with a washing of the whole area with a garden hose. This does 2 things. First it will wash away any stray battery corrosion off of your car parts and secondly is to prevent attracting ants to where soda has accumulated on your car
This may remove exterior corrosion, however the real problem is corrosion that is between the connection and the post! The connections need to be removed, post cleaned and connection as well. Better know what you are doing before attempting this. Looks easy but one wrong move can cost $$$$.
Battery is LEAKING .... thats why you have corrosion Also ... if coke does this to acid, what do you think it does to your stomach lining 🤔 Anyways, this is mechanic 101 btw
Sugar solution is an electrolyte - not good to pour it around electrical contacts, apart from being sticky. Diet Coke would likely do the same with no drawbacks. Re the people who quoted $50 to clean it, avoid them.

Yes I did that but didn’t show it on the video to keep it short! Great tip though thanks
Hot ass water works great!
And it doesn't make a sticky mess.
Nice! Thanks for the tip!
Add the Cola to a spray bottle.

You guys had a big fire there just before Christmas.

You are absolutely right, I am just showing one way to help clean batteries, but it is important to be cautious!

Thanks for the comments
You need to remove the terminals and wire brush the posts and inside of each terminal. The connection poins are the most important.......
Great advice! Thanks for sharing.
My dad taught me vinegar, baking soda, and a steel brush; why waste a coke cola?!
Great advice thanks
