bottom line is such a stain shouldn't happen and in likely does not to normally maintained cart.

But if it did Pour chlorine bleach into a spray bottle. Spray affected area until completely covered and let it set for a five minutes. Scrub battery acid stains with a hard bristle brush. If the stain remains, spray on another application of bleach and let it set longer.]

Apparently there are not many normally maintained electric carts in the Villages from all the acid burns in the concrete at Mallory....every parking spot...

Might need to invest in a haz. mat. suit too....if you plan on cleaning the stains..chlorine bleach on battery acid, followed by muriatic acid, and then baking soda..

How do you capture and where do you dispose of the water used to rinse all this off?

How to Remove Battery Acid Stains from Concrete?
Answer
Battery acid stains on concrete can be removed by; wear protective gloves, remove or sweep all dirt. Spray the area with chlorine bleach, scrub the area and remove the water using a pipe. Add muriatic acid; pour baking soda over the treated area to kill the chlorine. Take the dirty water to the appropriate place.
