I've never seen any reason to coat terminals with grease or the spray stuff. Sure, it LOOKS like it's keeping out corrosion, but corrosion on the outside of the terminal doesn't hurt a thing. Meanwhile, you can have terrible corrosion inside the clamp, where it matters. As for coating battery posts with non-conductive grease, that's just a bad idea.
I have had good results using just a dab of graphite-based anti-seize compound on the battery post. It improves conductivity and seems to eliminate corrosion in the contact area.
