Is your battery leaking? I didn't see that. If it is, then get you a cheap plastic spray bottle and fill it half and half, half water, half clear white vinegar, that will neutralize the acid long enough for you to clean it up. I usually spray it on top of my battery if I see any alchemical buildup, but with today's batteries you shouldn't see that at all.

Anyway, that mixture will really tame any acid leaks...
