Years ago when I was a young boy in the 50s I was at a mechanics shop of a friend of mine. This old guy brought hi old 6 volt for in and said he had a problem with his battery post getting corroded. The mechanic to a brush, scraper, coca cola and cleaned all terminals . He said the first thing is to make sure its completely clean. The voltage reg was bad so he replaced it. charged the battery and tested everything to make sure it was all charging correctly. He then took his grease gun and made sure all terminals were covered with grease. I saw that old fellow 20 years later. I asked him about that and he laughed and said that battery never corroded again. He said he thought the mechanic was wrong but after years later he was right. Believe it or not the coca cola helped to really clean the terminals. very clean terminals is a must. Grease is what I use.
