 I've never actually poured battery acid on fiberglass, but I used to make 
fiberglass exhaust systems for evacuating acid fumes from computer manufacturing 
facilities. 
The acids used are REALLY nasty in those places. Hydrofluoric is quite 
common. 
 I would bet it would work fine as long as the actual glass fibers 
weren't exposed. A good gel coat between the fumes/spill and the fibers should 
do the trick. The nice thing about fiberglass as opposed to PVC is it's very 
tough, will take a beating, and can be formed to any odd shape.
