If you have corroded battery slots on your bike, you will need to clean them before you can fix them. Corroded battery slots can cause your bike to not start, or to run poorly.
There are a few different ways to clean corroded battery slots. .
The first way is to use a degreaser. Make sure the degreaser is safe for your bike and the environment and coat the entire slot with degreaser.
Let the degreaser work its magic for a few minutes and then rinse off the slot with water. Be sure to use fresh water each time you wash the slot to keep corrosion from happening again.
If cleaning with a degreaser isn’t an option, you can use a wire brush to remove corrosion. You will need to scrub the area well and use a lot of elbow grease.
Once the area is clean, rinse it off with water and dry it off. Make sure the area is completely dry before applying any sealant or paint.
The final option is to use a battery acid cleaner. Make sure the cleaner is safe for your bike and the environment and pour it into the battery slot.
Give the cleaner time to work its magic and then rinse off the slot with water.
Once you have cleaned your corroded battery slots, make sure they are completely dry before applying sealant or paint.
