A few of the old-timers on the EV Discussion List used to recast battery 
terminals in their own garages.  They wrote about it and here's an edited 
version of the thread.  Not to be a downer, but sorry to say 2 of the 3 
writers, Bob Rice and Roland Wiench, are no longer with us.

Note that I don't really recommend trying this yourself. The writeup is 
mainly intended for information and entertainment.  To find an expert in 
the recasting and/or repair process, try industrial battery suppliers.
