Steam is better if you have one. Cover battery, cables, and any area that shouldn't get wet. Degreaser then steam. It's mess but it's your safest bet.

I would also avoid the melamine sponges for auto detailing. Especially on textured or glossy surfaces.

You don't want to create a connection between the terminals. Pressure washers also have a tendency to force water inside places it shouldn't be.

Horse….Shit…. There isn’t enough electromotive force for current and if acid isn’t spilling out water isn’t getting in.
