Exocetid
Pre-takeoff checklist
I had a little hangar time this weekend with my baby and found some crusty groady corrosion powder in the battery box. It was not pathologic; i.e., punched through or anything, so I scraped it off and vacuumed it all out, cleaned the battery terminals, topped off the charge, etc.
Now I am wondering:
Is is OK to put one of those battery pads or mats in there to soak up any acid or fumes? Aircraft Spruce sells it as do many auto parts places.
Is it OK to paint the box? If so, is there a special paint?
