HARTFORD, Conn. – Permatex has introduced two new aerosols designed to simplify battery maintenance especially during the colder, winter months when corrosion on terminals, cables, and connections can compromise connectivity and performance. Corrosion can drain the battery, causing a decrease in both electrical conductivity and overall battery life.
 
Permatex Battery Cleaner is a fast-acting foam that instantly clears away corrosive build-up from battery terminals and connections, the company states. The alkaline cleaner formula sets in just five minutes and dissolves the corrosion away. It features a cleansing foam that surrounds and penetrates the corrosion and therefore requires no connection or cable disassembly in order to reach difficult areas, according to Permatex. Permatex Battery Cleaner can be used in variety of automotive, marine, farm machinery and motorcycle battery applications.
 
Permatex Battery Protector & Sealer helps to protect batteries, cables and terminal connections against the formation of acid salt corrosion. The formula coats battery terminals, cables and connections to prevent the build-up of corrosion and minimize battery drain. This helps to improve electrical flow and overall battery life.
 
Permatex Battery Cleaner Part No. 80368 (5.75 oz. aerosol) and Permatex Battery Protector & Sealer Part No. 80370 (5.0 oz. aerosol) are sold separately. Both products are formulated for safe use by professional technicians and do-it-yourselfers alike.
