Anyone know why I have rust stains forming under my toy hauler on the concrete driveway just below where the 2 6 volt batteries sit? My last trailer did it too. Why?

Thats my guess, my wife's battery got a small crack in it and I have been washing it out ever since, I think I might have finally got it all washed out now.Going out on a limb, going to say acid venting. My golf cart at the river did the same thing.
Any tips on how to get rid of them? I have tried everything.
The acid works great but then you will have a whiter spot on the concrete.Acid:
(1) Chrome wheel from a good detail supply place (mix with water, experiment with mix may need to go full strength)
(2) Pool acid, Muratic. Do not use full strength add mostly water.
Let us know what worked
Didn't workHow about CLR? Anyone tried that?
This shit.Mix a tablespoon of baking into an 8oz solo cup of water. Pour said mixture over each battery to neutralize any vented battery acid. Wait 10 minutes and rinse with regular water, dry with a shop towel. Do this once a year or so. This will stop the acid from eating away at the frame.
Don't forget to coat your connectors with an anti-oxidant compound afterwards.
