I used to work at a gas station as a teen -- $0.32 per gallon -- and we wore Levi Nuvo (Nuevo???) flares because the battery acid would not eat holes in them before the end of the shift, like it would eat Levi jeans. Our gas station shirts were also a polyester blend for the same reason. Acid eats cotton and other natural fibers, but it will not eat plastic clothes. Of course, plastic clothing has other overhead that makes it undesirable, but if you need something that batteries don't go after plastic is hard to beat. |

Well it sure snarfed up the (presumably) nylon carpet on the floor mat of my Acura. Didn't bother the rubber backing much. |

Your generalisation about plastic is not correct. Battery acid will *absolutely* destroy nylon very quickly (within seconds or minutes). Try it on something you know is nylon.

A stiff brush will help get the little chunks of burrito out of your pants zipper, and next time tell her not to eat stomach-upsetting food "beforehand". |
