	Ooof -- I would rather first remove the acid, rather than keep it
hanging around, painted over by POR-15.

	Simple water will dilute it and wash it away.  I don't know the
chemistry of auto batteries, but aren't there lead ions hanging around?
Yuck.  Don't let your rinse water run into the vegetable garden...

	Yes, baking soda will neutralize the acid, since it's a base.
