Baking soda will neutralize the acid.

sorry, you need to have the damage painted. Acid will permanently damage the paint.

once any type of acid eats into a finish the only way to make it look right is to refinish it . you can neutraliz the acid but the damage is done . the only protection there is to the substraight (metal ) is the top coat . primers and under coats offer no protection at all . so over time with any of the top coat eaten away from the acid you will start to see rusting down the road .
