Re: battery acid resistant paint
You can use POR-15 for the battery tray and just about everything else you don't want to rust out.

Re: battery acid resistant paint
I used POR on a battery box and it rusted out in a couple of years since the battery leaked.

Re: battery acid resistant paint
What most often makes a battery leak? Bouncing around? Temp fluctuation? And does it leak out of the top or out of the side? Could a person seal some area better with something? Or is there some maintenance that a person could do...baking soda rinse now and then? I just got done blasting and painting mine so I would like to know...not sure I want to drop money on an optima yet.
