Projecta BPT12 Battery Post and Terminal Cleaner

Quick answer

The Projecta BPT12 is the Battery Post and Terminal Cleaner. A cleaner with internal and external wire brushes for battery posts and terminals.

One end cleans the post, the other cleans inside the terminal clamp. Clean connections cut down on hard starting and charging faults.

Wear eye protection; corrosion dust is acidic.

If the old terminal was badly corroded, cut the cable back to clean copper before fitting the new one. Keep the positive covered so a spanner cannot bridge it to the body. Tighten firmly but do not crush the post; a lead post deforms easily. Measure the post and the cable before ordering; a terminal that is too big for the post will never clamp properly. Check the terminal again after the first week, as new cable can settle under the clamp. After fitting, a thin smear of terminal grease or spray protector slows corrosion. Remove rings and watches before working on battery connections. Disconnect the negative terminal first and reconnect it last whenever you work near the battery.
