It will be hard to do and maintain the system in battery working order
while you work on it, the easiest way to clean the terminals is soak in
baking soda/water solution - you may have to swirl them around in a kids
bucket of the mixture to activate the soda enhancing the cleaning into
the threads. Once you get things cleaned up apply vaseline, pure
petroleum jelly no coagulants or colorants, wipe some on the underside
of the terminals and once tightened in place wipe a little extra over
the top - now the fun part. To be sure nobody has been doing off-hour
experiments place a condom over each one to further slow the oxidation,
I am imagining a whole new thread to this part - but the idea is
keep-it-simply-simple. Forget the extra thread on color, scent and all
that nonsense.
